Had go to a shop nearby yesterday and that drive takes me through the vinyard area that is not far from home. As it's still early spring here (not very warm yet) the vast areas of vines are still trimmed down which they do after the past years harvest. They'll grow again this year and produce another crop of grapes of course.

There are several winery headquarters spread around the area. Of course they all have their own vinyards.
There's busloads of people that come out from the big city (Toronto) to spend the day touring the winery headquarters and having wine tasting experiences as well as upscale food offerings.

Here's one of the winery's headquarters:

I guess there's big money in owning a vinyard because the owners live in pretty palatial residences.
A new build near the headquarters I showed:

I have heard that the surgery is on the brink of failure. My 💔 is breaking at the thought of this. TY MrPants
I'm so sorry you are going through yet more health issues Pepper. I saw your post about having such a nice day and was hopeful you would be having more days like that. Sending out positive vibes that you will get the care you need and get back to healing.
 
I fell asleep at the computer before I posted this! 🙄 So this refers to yesterday....I started doing laundry using my little machines this evening. I didn't want to do it early because the dryer makes the kitchen real hot and I was hoping someone would come to start the repair on the leak in my kitchen but that didn't happen. Doing laundry using my machines, though convenient, is very tiring what with all the bending, twisting and lifting. But I've noticed that my clothes look cleaner when I do. However, it is not practical to always do it up here.

I texted one of the agents in the managing office this afternoon with pictures of the leak. I texted her again tonight telling her the leak has gotten worse and attached videos showing the leak from multiple areas. I'm going to email her and another agent with a description of what's been happening and attach the same videos. One was taken yesterday by the contractor and the other tonight, by my son.
