our vineyard



(John Gorbet's grape vines)



(from our local Farmers Market)


(a vineyard in Southern France)

Recently Sam and i have been on an obsessive streak when it comes to vineyards. We have the blue prints drawn up and the spot located that will hold our future vineyard. I guess i have dreamy visions of a scene from the movie "A Walk among the Clouds." A terrible movie- which i would never recommend, all but the one scene where the whole village is together jumping bare feet on the grapes- that will someday become delicious wine. Everyone is laughing and dancing and pushing each other around- all covered in grapes! love it :) a stomping grape party- who's in? I found some old vineyard and grape pictures to inspire us all in this dream :)

p.s.- i laughed so hard about your comments about 'walk in the clouds.' it was doomed from the start with keanu reeves as its star! ;) but the grape squishing did look fun!
