grapes

the ample summer rains do not seem to have had a negative impact on the grapes ( although it looks as if it may be a somewhat lighter harvest this year...but that is only judging by eyeballing the tree...we will have to wait until harvest for an official weight ) and the hard little green grapes have begun to soften and turn purple out here in the cascade...i am thinking in about a month i will be snaking a ten foot ladder into the brush under the tree and climbing to harvest as much as i can reach..harvest is gratifying...no matter what the subject.
