it is 1 30 in the morning. i just got in from finishing up with the olives. i have really been liking all this work. it feels good. this morning i got out of bed around 8. then around 9 30 we headed to the terrain and we picked olives until the sun came down and then picked some more. its was maybe 7 pm when we got back. then we ate a very delicious meal of mashed potatoes and mashed carrot with fried egg on top. then we drank some homemade wine from another one of michael and maobis friends. then a group of us put the bagged olives into a machine that took out all the leaves and stems. i had to stand there and shake up the olives when they were coming down the machine to put the leaves through the grate that then went into a bag.we all drank wine the whole time. lots and lots of wine. we now have 23 bags full. i would guess each bag ways at least 60 pounds. tomorrow morning we are going to the olive oil press place. i am excited to see how they make oil.
michelle doesnt like olives. i use to hate them. now i like how they taste. salty and what not. my feet stink.
