Aloha!! With the Hacienda finished we spent June focused on the acres of tasks & projects around da' ranch...... yup, many more months of work to go!!!!!
While we like to think we can plan our days, the batches of critters can keep us reacting.... rabbits popping out little ones, sheep getting sick so "Vet Les" swings into action..... never a dull morning doing chores around here!
We mowed pastures, built sheds & worked to expand the gardens.... planting fruit trees & shade trees in the pastures kept us busy.
A major task was clearing trees behind the Hacienda to put in the next fence line..... we luv our new wood chipper.... the trees become new beds for bananas!!!!
While fruit trees usually need 2-3 years to bear fruit, the intense sun down in the tropics amazes us as they grow at amazing rates..... our first papaya is already fruiting after 7 months!!!!
It's the "hot season" in the tropics, but it's clearing & fencing all the next month!!
