Friends and fellow prune farmers from Chile visited us today. It was interesting to reminisce I worked in Chile back in 2007.

Fast forward and today Argentina is on a fast track to a free market model for the rest of the developed world and Chile is regressing into a socialist backwater of South America. The world and time are fascinating
