It looks like we are about ready to leave the South Island of New Zealand and head north again. As always there are more things that we would love to have done. That is for next time. Andrew has only a week and a half working the hop harvest while I have been woofing at […]
When I am in the middle of something great I just don’t have the time to write about it. Right after I am just numb and filled with awe. Later on I look at the photos and say, “Dang that was great”. Here is me writing about one of those great experiences from last year. […]
We arrived in Motueka and pulled the truck onto a field at Riverside Community in Lower Motuere. Really nice people here. Riverside is probably the oldest intentional community in New Zealand, being started by Methodist pacifists in 1941 and now operating as a multi-faith community on 500+ acres. Last weekend was the Riverside Music Festival. […]

It is spring and with it Elderflower season. Well, at least in the Southern Hemisphere. I saw elderflowers growing on the side of the road last week and made some plans for the weekend. Saturday came and on the way home from the Agricultural show, where we were oogling tractors, sheep wool, horses and getting […]
Started working at the Waipara Hills Vineyard yesterday as a ‘seasonal worker’. We are trying something new. Me and Andrew are working at the vineyard while TJ ( who now wants to be called Tim Tam now) and Hannah ( who now wants to be called Gwennie) are across the street at the camp in […]
