Greetings From Colorado

[Finsup]

I have been lurking around the forum and learning a ton of valuable info. Thank you! Now that I have 2 in the carboys, 1 in the primary and 1 more still in the box, I figured it was time to join the fun officially.

Cheers and FINS UP __/)__

Love the comment Arne!! The problem is that once you pass it on, it still leaves you with symptoms. All of my neighbors and friends are now making wine (and beer.) Thought that this would lessen their demands on me....but was I ever wroing.
Now they all want the grapes. Last year had to plant another 2500 plants in the vineyard just to keep up with their demands. Guess maybe in 4 years the pressure will be off.
The good part, however, is now they are more willing to help with the pruning, harvest, crushing, etc.
