Grapes Galore - And New Vines

We are fortunate that grapes grow easily here.  We often have bumper crops and the local children readily take up our offer to come and help themselves!  On a sunny Autumn day it is one of life's pleasures to gobble down the sweet, juicy bunches straight off the vines.


 




In the early morning mist a spider weaves her strands along the vines and they catch the gossamer blowing in the wind.


 




Dad decided to take cuttings and start more vines.




I love the leaves of the grapes.




 In Autumn the leaves are beautiful as they change with the season.  This vine grows over a gate.

 Crunch, crunch!

 The changing yellow leaves glow under a beautiful, clear blue, autumnal sky.
