Harvest!

"Wine is sunlight, held together by water." ~Galileo

When we bought our house it had two grape vines in the back yard.

With the help of some friends, we added a third vine and a gazebo for the grapes to grow on.

This year is the first time we have had anything approximating a harvest.

Sadly, we will not be making wine with our grapes because

1) We don't know how
2) Even if we did know how, we have enough grapes to make about 1/2 bottle of wine
3) Even if we knew how and even if we had more grapes, it would probably be a lousy wine as the grapes are pretty sad by professional standards

But to us they are a little bit of backyard magic!
