Good I guess afternoon:            12:00 pm
     Last Saturday I took Iza to see the new "Peanuts" movie, Charlie Brown.  I suppose hanging around us old people a lot, she is growing up fast that this movie was maybe a little tame for her.  At one sad part for Charlie Brown I told her I got a little teary eyed, she didn't.  When she talked to Grandma about the movie she said it was really good, I sensed her response was seasoned with gratitude for Grandpa going our special for her.  I thought this was really neat to see in her.

     We have now two less deer to eat our grapes, Jon's neighbor Brian and his huntig partners got two does.  This brings a question into my brain,  is does the correct for for two female deer?  He shot two does. Compared to, he does a wonderful job of shooting deer.  Time to check this one out.

Last evening I was working in the equipment building making room for a truck load of wine bottles.  It started raining and got ugly out, Brian was still in his deer stand, I was nice in dry in the steel building.  Maybe I don't miss hunting.

 The Cider Corner:
        Jon did get another run of MN Crisp bottled this week and the labels for the new label "Sechs in a Bottle" should be on the way here.  This is the cider made from 5 apple varieties and one grape, hence the name "Sechs" the German word for six.
     This morning he called to tell about a slow down with pressing the grapes for the 2015 vintage of Müllner Nice, our ice wine.  The bins of grapes came out of a walk-in freezer and are too frozen to press.  He'll have to do most of the work tomorrow allowing a little thawing time.  It should be good, a bigger vintage than last year's which won the best of show, specialty category at the ICCWC.
