There's a mysterious box that was delivered to us Monday... It has been sitting in our courtyard ever since. Every time I look at it, it makes me think of the first season of Lost when they were staring at the hatch. I imagine a strange sound emerging from it, just like on the TV show. What do you think it could be??? I have to wait until Matt returns from Sweden this weekend to open it up!
Is it a reverse osmosis machine? Since we've been in drought mode and our alcohol levels are high, maybe we decided to take matters into our own hands????
Is it a new tractor that Matt found on the internet for a good price, the only catch is we have to assemble it ourselves?
Or maybe it's a whole bunch of soaker hose so we can start irrigating the vineyards?
How about a new super fancy peristaltic pump!? That would be cool.
It could be a dynamizer so don't have to spend an hour swirling the bio-dynamic preparations around in a barrel by hand!
In any case it's the most expensive piece of equipment we've invested in so far, so let's hope that's a good one!
Stay tuned to see the unveiling!
PS- you see that tarp covering it? Yes, that means we've been getting even more rain. It's great! Though I have to say I miss our Provençal sun.
Is it the bureaucrat who denied your CdR classification? (Sorry, too many violent movies lately.)

Damn! I wish I'd thought of that! Good one MrTaz!

Love the allusion to Lost. I actually included one for my notes on our Viognier in last week's tv themed wine menu.
Hope it's nothing as frightening as things on the island!
