This, my friends, is a La Crescent grape vine fully engaged in the art of 'Bud Break'. To be exact, this is 03-2010 La Crescent (Grayslake). Grabbing as much southern sun as the surrogate parent could give it.
My roommate and I are celebrating the success of the bud break with the following:
A lovely combination, I tell you. My roommate brought the delicious cheese from the local Strack and Vantil, I brought the Syrah (I actually thought I picked up a bottle of Malbec). No protests at all with either. Good conversation, good memories. The bottle of Syrah was $9.99, from Vas Foremost Liquors (I call it Vas Deferens Liquors). Bought a Megamillions ticket with the vino. I'll let you know if I hit the jackpot.
Lots of rain today in Chicago, Illinois. Lots of slugs and earwigs in my garden. Trying to figure out the next steps.
