So good.

1134
00:45:48,496 --> 00:45:50,914
So how long has your family
had this farm?

1135
00:45:50,915 --> 00:45:53,458
Three generations,
but my mom and dad

1136
00:45:53,459 --> 00:45:55,835
did their best
to try to make it two.

1137
00:45:55,836 --> 00:45:59,589
They weren't exactly
in tune with the land.

1138
00:45:59,590 --> 00:46:02,300
Or the business,
for that matter.

1139
00:46:02,301 --> 00:46:04,177
Is that why you
started the resort?

1140
00:46:04,178 --> 00:46:05,804
Yeah.

1141
00:46:05,805 --> 00:46:07,889
Olive trees take five years
to get healthy again,

1142
00:46:07,890 --> 00:46:10,141
and so I thought
I could stave off

1143
00:46:10,142 --> 00:46:13,895
the impending financial doom
by opening up the resort.

1144
00:46:13,896 --> 00:46:17,899
Little did I know that nature
would have other ideas.

1145
00:46:17,900 --> 00:46:20,694
Honestly, I have no idea
what I'm going to do.

1146
00:46:20,695 --> 00:46:25,699
The flies are eating
into the crops and the profits.

1147
00:46:25,700 --> 00:46:27,367
And if I can't
convince the lenders

1148
00:46:27,368 --> 00:46:30,370
to refinance the loan next week,

1149
00:46:30,371 --> 00:46:32,372
I could lose all this.

1150
