almost ready

little ornamental vineyard at work, in the garden (we do have
bigger vineyards, by the way...) 

Well, the job is not the best and surely has its "downs", but it does have its "ups"...

For example, back in june, I had those 24 brand new PCs to configure for some of my users... quite intimidating, ain't they? and a little overwhelming too...

"down"

*But* I got to see those beauties when "patrolling" the vineyards (I'm the vice-lucky guy who goes out to read power and water counters...)

"up"

I can't really whine, now, can I?

Really, she does.

That's a poppies field I've been spotting on the route home. I didn't resist and today I stopped the car and took photos while the girls oh-ed and ah-ed over the red beauties (glad they can appreciate simple things).
