A close call

As you can see at the back of this image the trees are were burnt. A few years back there was a fire on this hillside. At the bottom of the hill is where one of my in-laws olive groves start. The fire was pretty close, and yet never got to any of their trees. I think my father in law was watching over his trees from above.
I have one more day here and then it’s back home. Early morning flight from Rhodes to Athens and then on to NY.
The first couple of days were tough, but now I am used to it. I like working outside, I may even miss it. On the days it didn’t rain the weather was quite mild and I was usually working in a t-shirt. Plus, my mother in law believes in union work apparently: coffee break at 10 am, lunch at 1pm.
The past 3 days we also saw military helicopters fly over us, probably about 5 or 6 of them. Really cool to see.
