In the beginning...

Next weekend we're planning to go to Lyle. I'm recovering from a cold so I don't know how much work I'll get done on the vineyard. Right now everything is in the planning stage. Maybe I can survey the site and come up with a rationale for terracing the hillside. Based on what I've seen in the past, the soil looks very rocky. I suspect the work will be back breaking. In addition to a trellis system, I'll need to put in a robust fence to keep deer and javelina out. The amount of manual labor required is considerable. I have very little time and no money. Let's get started!
