3 short days...
It is a little weird. I have been looking forward to this for a while, and yet now it is bittersweet.
Cromwell is finally waking up. Our crew at the vineyard has doubled in a week, and so has the crews of the over 12 or so vineyards surrounding Cromwell, all with people about my age. There are people in the town center, people in the restaurants, people everywhere. I am getting invited to dinners and get-togethers. The local farmer's market has even started up again for the season. So, it is with a certain sadness that I prepare to leave Cromwell.
I feel like I just got my feet under me here, and now I am moving on.
But the thing is, while the people are really great, and some of them are really amazing, I don't really like the work. Well, that is an understatement... I find the work really unsatisfying. (I have listed some of the reasons previously, and again, I feel like if I knew this is what I wanted to do, it would be a very different. It is not that I don't necessarily want to work for Felton Road Winery, it is that I don't want to work vineyards... At least I don't think I do.)
This is not a new feeling... I felt the same when I left China, same when school ended, etc.
I guess this is just part of life.
