Now most of the grapes are harvested mechanically.

Gotta smile at that one; some victory, huh? I think it's either early or late for local grapes now? The last ones I looked at in the market were from Chile. I try to buy only U.S.A. produce but sometimes make exceptions.

Grapes in the valley usually ripen in August.

I put bunches of grapes in the freezer .... Marissa loves Grape Popsicles this time of year. In August and September, I put the bunches in zip lock bags.

My son and his cousins loved frozen grapes during the hot days of July and August.

Hi, dita. Nice to see you here today.

Did you have a nice Easter? I was thinking about your Confirmation a week ago Saturday and remembering how joyful you sounded in anticipation. :-)
