Beny,
Great looking Trachies, absolutely pristine.
Love the guy's stone walls too.
As nice as Josef's in Prague...haven't heard from him in a while.
Barb
EDIT; Beny, did he do a video of wrapping them before winter?

Yes Barb, go on his youtube channel and you ll see all his videos. He s using heat tape,arbotex and tarp, like me. And it works well. Im not sure, but i think he s using a kind of thermocube located at the middle of the trunck. You can see that on one of his videos.
And i should say, Tcheq republic and not Tcheqkoslovakia

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
