A sight to behold to welcome us home

We arrived back in England - to warm weather and a wonderful greeting from a covey of quails.  Yes, Quentin and his buddies were in the back garden. There were more than 20 of them running around, looking for food....or maybe they were checking on us???

 

And along with Quentin, it seemed the vineyard was welcoming us back with it's lovely show of autumn colors.  Different grape varietals go different colors in autumn, so it's a lovely time to drive around and try to guess which grape is producing the red leaves or the yellow or the.....

Here's our Merlot:




It's good to be home.

Glad to know that you are back home and that a covey of quails were there to greet you! How perfect! The vineyards look beautiful, too! It's nice to see them at different times of the year. I bet Harold was "over the moon" to see you! Did you sing duets together all day?
Miss you!
