We came home an hour ago to the kiwi orchard where we now live for an undetermined amount of time. We have been out in Myrtleford (45 minutes away) to a restaurant with a couple which we just recently got to know. Isaac and Janna. Wonderful people! Janna actually comes from Sweden and Isaacs mom is from Sweden but he was born in Australia. He lived with Janna in Sweden for four years but they moved back to Australia a short time ago.
All day have been a bit stormy, very big and dark rainy clouds have been moving over us. Just before we left tonight it began pouring down and by the time we left the car running for Janna and Isaacs door, the rain stood like fish rods in the ground. 
The night was very pleasant filled with Swedish words and ugly songs. On our way home we had a few problems, or more like a test drive course to confirm the handling on Herman is awesome. Big sticks had fallen down from the trees. Some of the trees had also buckled for the weight of the storm. Luckily for us we were able to sneak around all of these trees.
Now that we came home to Leigh and Tina, they were awake waiting for us. They had been out tonight as well and a neighbor who drove before them had a chainsaw with him, so he began chopping the trees in the way. That’s why we could get pass. If we wouldn’t have gotten home until midnight they would have gone to find us since there is no cell phone signal.
Now it really is time for bed so we are ready to prune and tie down kiwi trees in the orchard tomorrow.
But how are you guys?
