Spring break in Jupiter...

Back from a 3-week sojourn to Jupiter...
Actually, that probably would have been cheaper, as we have had 3 weeks of breaking stuff here at the farm. In chronological order we have broken: the dishwasher (repaired by Paul with a $29 part - aren't we clever!); the chainsaw (repaired by Chainsaw Man for $250 - we're not so clever!); Paul's sporty MR2 (beyond repair due to over cooked engine - $400 for death sentence); and one large lounge room window (broken by Hercules the ram hurtling out of control - that's a whole other story...).
So we have had an expensive month, and are juggling with one car, which is tricky when you live in the country. Thankfully it is school holidays still, so we can take turns working from home. Next week may be a different story however.

For the cheese lovers, here is the cheese maturing nicely, almost a month old. Another month, and it will be ready for nibbling.
