Winter Sunshine In The Vines

Its nearly mid feb and no snow yet,so the prunning is going well. The cabernet franc behind the house is finished with just the dead wood to remove and then tie down.

When the weather is like this you can't beat it. We are sure that some really cold weather will arrive before winter is over,probably late Feb early March but we will just wait and see?
