Summer tires were put on the Jeep in addition to a general tune up and change of oil, so that it should be in fine condition for the summer. The newly planted trees were watered, with water being carried in buckets to the field. Christian, thank you for your email from Germany; it is always good to hear from you. I did not get enough sleep last night and so I am quite groggy at the moment, thus this diary entry will have to be shorter than usual.
