Just came back from a two week trip to the farm in Portugal and the land was outstanding with all the trees blooming. The upper photo is one of the apple trees, but also the vines, fig trees, orange ones and of course the olive trees are blooming.

We had two weeks of sun so the gras was quite high in some of the areas of the property and I decided to use the streamer to cut it down a bit.

We also had time to finally install the wood stove and test it with a couple of fires to have it ready for next winter as it gets quite humid during the rainy season here.

I also had to take care of burning the olive tree branches we trimmed while harvesting the olives last november. It is better to do it soon as when temperatures rise it is forbidden to do any fire outdoors.

The weather was pretty warm and even had a chance to visit a local Sunday market and taste local homemade cake 😋

All in all, two weeks surrounded by nature and slow life which made me come back home full of energy and some lemons from the tree!
