Not going to lie! It’s been a tough week. Work on the poly tunnel continues, but things sometimes stop you in your tracks.
All we can do is dig in and carry on.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dan and family during this very difficult time.
There are no words that can express how sad and helpless we feel in this situation.
Please keeping giving your love and support to him and please consider watching their videos over at @SimpleLifePortugal every little helps. Thank you!❤️

I feel inspired to retry a poly tunnel. I got one about 2 yrs ago and even though I anchored it down, it blew away in a storm. Never saw it again. It's so sad about Sindy. She was a wonderful person. My heart goes out to Dan. 👍🇨🇦

@@The-Quinta LOL! who knows? it may still be orbiting the earth. after last night's storm, i won't be modifying an amazon greenhouse. i might just rig up a cold frame using old windows. there is a guy nearby with tons of them piled up against the house. He's a bit different. i'll have to get someone to go with me.

It is nice to see you working together on your projects, I’m sure it feels good to work on your own place.

The Poly Tunnel is getting closer to completion, great!! You will love growing plants in there. Also, growing vegs in there in the off season. Cristina and James I would like to ask if you could do something in memory of Sindy. Sindy loved Roses. I wondering if you could plant a rose in your garden in her memory. Roses here in New Zealand are all flowering so not the right tome here for planting. As soon as the time comes I will be planting a rose in her memory. Thanks again for sharing your life.

My ruin is in Monte Ruivo and I was excited to see that the mains water has been attached. I spent 5 years with no running water. It will be going on the market soon for someone to turn it into their dream home. Good luck with all your plans for the future. I will be watching.
