Harvest time

Pictures of the 2014 harvest.
Lots of grapes


TollGate Farm. The old cabin dates from about 1730.


The spring house.



Dad checking on the Viogner.


That's about an acre of Viogner.



Cabernet Franc.


I got a little bit of tractor time!


Petite Verdot, with bird netting.

















Today's bonus picture.
This was taken at night, with a flash of course. I walked out in the yard near where the tractor is and the ground had all these little glowing lights. I managed to extract this little critter. It was glowing in my hand. I have not yet identified it.


I have a candidate ID on this little critter: Pyractomena.  It grows up to be a different kind of firefly beetle.
