Your governor brought Covid to your state? No, but they can implement misery and striped pajamas because of it, not of any borne of Constitutional authority of course. Covid is real. That is a fact independent of what you want to believe. You can ignore the disease, pretending it does not exist but by doing so you give the virus what it needs ... a host which will pass it along bringing sickness, death and financial hardship. There is no easy way out but I believe relying on solid science to break the chain, no matter how inconvenient, beats the hell out of pretending the problem does not exist. Life exists. I plan on not hiding from it. The fact of the matter people can stay inside and be safe from life or get living. Its pretty odd, in America, one should be able to choose risking life or staying inside. One can stay "safe" and have everything delivered to your door. It might shock you people fought wars, built industries and existed before "science" and politics shut the world down. "Science" is what created it.... I can schit in a box and slap "guarantee" on it if it makes you feel better. Stay the [bleep] inside, stay out of your car and for God sakes continue to let someone else make your decisions for you

Rufous, NC has a pretty decent winemaking region in the foothills and Piedmont area, you msy could look into that area if willing to relocate. Prayers that God will see you through this troubling time.

Bugger! I was let go today. The winery I was making the wine for here in Michigan has lost a lot of money due to our freaking Governor shutting down the state and so the CEO has decided to eliminate my salary from the payroll. I know of no wineries in my area that are looking for a winemaker so it looks like I will need to try to sell the house. Then what, who knows. Prayers appreciated. Rufous, I'm sure most here have your sympathies. It's BS and I hope it turns around for you tenfold.

Sorry to hear this.
California is having a bad time with the wine industry. Sales did go down according to Gallo, less exports. Zinfandel vineyards have been being pulled out for ~2 years now, many replanted with nut tree's, and this year most farmers I know barely broke even with the price of their producing tree's and with many first- crop next year. Plus this year a lot of other growers had their contract denied due to "smoke damage" but interestingly only certain wineries refused grapes after the smoke hit us, others didn't reject crop. Playing games, imho and other vintners around me. I think most white's were picked before the smoke damage.
That winery in Pahrump buys it's juice from California, at least they did ~ 6 years ago, Napa and Lodi, they told me. Don't they only have about 40 vines along their entrance?
Good luck with whatever you find

Keep your chin up, man.
I lost my job of 27 years in April. It came as a complete shock.
I worked on the farm in the summer and worked construction in the fall. (Don't do the latter. It sucks. lol)
Now I have a job that I love at a different mfg. plant, 6 rural miles from my house vs. 35 urban miles to the former job.
The guys I work with are all great and the best part of it all, it's not freakin CORPORATE!
I'm making way less money but am much much happier.
You'll land on your feet.

rufous, sorry to hear of your ordeal. But, you sound like the kind of guy who bounces back quickly.
Rooster7, congrats on finding a good spot.
