I have been waiting to take some more pictures of winter. Today would have been good or last week, but no, keep forgetting the camera.
Last weekend, Sunday afternoon till Monday night we spend at Chrystal Palace in Moncton. We took Caleb and Damaris. And Tineke went as well with Cassie and Aaron. we had an absolute blast and were sure tired when we got home.
Did some snowmobiling on the trail with Rebecca last Saturday afternoon. The trails were good. Then another snowstorm Wednesday with about a foot of snow, just too bad I got the flu and don't remember most of it. No energy at all. Today it is finaly coming around, not so tired anymore. Enough energy to go for another sledrun today. It was very busy on the trails. Lots of snowmobiles out. Some broke down, (Artic Cat)of course. Went with Pete, Rebecca & Tim, and Damaris on the back with me. Sorry, no pictures, but what a beautifull day for it. Should sleep good tonight.
Tomorrow's weather calls for above zero temperatures. Hope that the it doesn't get too warm.
On the other front, I did finaly bottle my first two batches of wine. Thirty bottles of white wine, Gewurtztraminer, and thirty of red wine, Cabernet Sauvignon. Very tasty if I may say so. Hope you will come over and try one of them some day. I do have some pictures on my camera of the winemaking procedure. So I can add a few of those. It is just not the same without pictures.This is what the wine looked like in the carboy(glass bottle), just before bottling.
And in the glass, it was goood too, :)
And after bottling, impressed yet? Wait till you taste it.First carboy of red wine.
Filtering the wine from one carboy into another one. To make it just right.And finaly bottling with the help of Damaris, my main bottle filler. Not so much up for taste testing however..........
