Harvest then to harvest now

Last year at this time I had just finished harvest in Santa Rosa, California. It was my favorite harvest job to date. I miss the 18 hour days working in the vineyard and winery. There is something magical about harvest. It is hard work both physically and mentally, but it sure beats sitting in front of a computer all day! Sometimes I wondered why I did it. But now that I am not doing it, I know why.
The closest I have gotten to the vineyard this year was when I took the Retail Department out for a quick lesson on Brix. Here they all are in the vineyard. The fruit was picked this week.
