Yes ,
As me start this link/letter the peenie Wallys are loud and hot summer nights are over. Cane River is
moderately loud- which makes me belive rain happening up The Stafford Hall Farm as i am writing.
Different and strange persons are coming to the hills more and more . In a way
it is not bad-so to say- becuase if/when me come out of the bush here- me very uneasy and tense
in Kingston's bash n rush. In other words me cant blame a normal human for wanting to cool out in country.
Big rain has been gpoing on , and it is a lucky thing becuase the the trees which bear this time of year are not
ones we need to climb. A hook stick or a thick jacket (for Pickle Mickle Ants) is enough. Meaning, climbing a wet tree is hazardous.
This week is all about the coffee team and myself. One male and one female. Mr. James and Mawga-rue.
We went through the wet bush and picked all the coffee we could find -intoxicated by its aroma -day's end.
The Coffe factory has extended their hand to work with us this year again and we very grateful.
Where the sweet carambola is planted has been reaped and the wine's first end stage will soon be ready.
The Brazilian Grape wil be bottled around March- both of they are being fermented right now . SO in other words
that will be the 2021 Vintage ready in 2022 March around Good Friday.
Few bottles of 2019 red and a few bottles of 2019 whites still available...but me considering not selling those yet and just aging them
till around 5 years time. (mayBe)
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
If you have family here in Jamaica who are in need of help and alson grow pimento -
u can send them to me and I will buy it from them for cash/checque .
In all honesty 'GoodHopeHikes' is not looking good this year. 1. The weather 2. Governemnt's Covid rules (which we intend to respect
Our Tour Guides will be given strict warning to refrain from accepting 'gifts' for movemnet on that day.
International Mountain day is coming up in December and Good Friday --if we are not allowed the group climb/Hike now.
Me have been offered a chance to produce an Album for a popular Saxophonist and Bnad Leader and we are in talks about it.
My belief is that he would be successful in providing a feasable endorement of 'the abstract sound' to You.
This oportunity comes with budget tho--And me eye is out for executive producers who may be wiling to move the project
through it's phases.
Me attempts to formulate a link with a Jamaican Publisher has failed again ---- but selling 'out the trunk'
works for me music -so me will try it for the books too.
Again covid slow down every thing but we keeping off the streets and can only HOPE for better.
respect Zee
