We bottled wine on Thursday \u2013 Ros\u00e9 of Syrah
\nOn the left: 6 bottles waiting to get corks; the blue machine behind Eric. The label machine in front of Cameron wasn’t working well. He was explaining to Bob (right side) what was supposed to happen. Bob is a friend Cameron met when he was a winemaker in the Spokane area. I’ve worked on trails with Bob the few times when I went east with WTA.

\nThe only true glitch happen when I was distracted and let the corker add a second cork to a bottle. This isn’t a big deal, but both have to be taken out, the bottle cleaned off, and a bit of wine and a new cork placed. <\/p>\n

I finished a multi-purpose rolling cart and secondary critter door for the large deck on the south side. Photo next time. I have had a wood pallet leaning against the house in front of the commercial critter flap that was built-in when the deck was being constructed. The purpose was to block strong gusts of wind from blowing the flexible plastic. My solution uses a similar flap as part of rolling table or cart that can serve the function of a side-table for gatherings involving snacks. <\/p>\n

Another thing completed this week is the 8-ft ramp (50″ wide) off the back concrete. In the photo, several holes are needed (for nails) in the last plank. The cedar hue of the planks is from a double coating of “sun screen” – – a penetrating clear wood finish (CWF) preservative with ultraviolet (UV) protection. I alternated 2x4s and 2x6s; used ones with some issues, but this usage seems better than cutting them for fire wood. Eliminating a step is nice and the wood was here (free; sort of); the finish came from a 2-gallon purchase a couple of years ago during a sale at BiMart.

\nA large raspberry patch was here \u2013 fuel for a wildfire. Now gone.
\nFinished Sunday after lunch.
\n“lunch!” There was a scholarship lunch Friday at CWU. I think 8 of us showed up out of a dozen in our group. Classes just started and the academic department folks, such as geography, are busy.<\/p>\n
