Scooter, how is your retaining wall progressing? Do you have any pictures?

Yes. I brew a batch of beer every 3-months or so, and thought I would give wine a go. I put in (12) plants in April, (2) didn't make it from the start, and the pocket gophers took (2) during the year. So I'm left with (8) plants. Next year, I plan on replacing the (4) and adding (6) more. And, with a bit of luck, I'll have enough to bottle a case in a couple of years. ....

Good luck! I have brewed beer and wine years ago but only from kits. I made a grain and kit combination once that was probably the best beer I made. Both the beer and wine was usually drinkable but not great. I have bottles of home brew with jalapeno peppers stored in the basement. People seemed to like that.

My daughter and her boyfriend took some of my beer and wine back to college to try it out. I told them to have a few store bought beers before they drink this stuff :)
I have a few grape plants growing in topsoil that I may transplant in the spring. I have no plans to make wine but the wife keeps bringing plants home when shopping. I am running out of room to plant! ....
