The grapevine

Just a couple of shots of the grapevine-


First, taken a few weeks ago when they were just starting-




A little more recent, maybe last week-




And we ran a couple of wires to the patio overhang (can't think of a better word for it right now, because its not really a roof)-





Its pretty amazing how fast these things grow, lending complete understanding to 'heard it through the grapevine'. They travel fast. We visited another friends house the other night, and they had several trees which had essentially a scaffolding built next to them, and then the branches are cut/allowed to grow in such a way that they create a roof on the patio. Put a table under it, and you have shade for the summer with bunches of grapes hanging down. He doesn't know if his are table or wine either, but if wine he's got enough for at least a couple, maybe three bottles. Pretty cool.


Lastly, saw some Girolles at the market-





Thats probably equivalent to what we had, although maybe we had a little more. Not too shabby, being able to take a walk through the forest and if you know what you are looking for, having a good meal after. Thats 7€ for the Girolles, btw.
