I made some more wall space in the wine cellar and worked on some new display racks for my wine library. Got everything cut drilled and stained. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to cut the dowels to length and add them to the 1x12's and maybe hang them. I'll be able to add one bottle each for 45 more varieties. I have 8 bottles already waiting to go up there.

After getting up to date on my wine racking etc I decided to try our my favorite new toy. We have these neighbor dogs who think their only purpose to go outside it to bark continually. If mine bark when they are out I tell them to stop and they do. The neighbors never tell them to quiet down even if they go out after midnight. I will tell you that this thing works great and is well worth the money. It sends out an ultrasonic sound pulse that make them stop barking and run away. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E7KVQ2/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
My other neighbor actually gave me mine since he had three of them on his work truck. He works for the utility company dealing with residential meters.

Affe,

It was a gallon of Catawba, 1 1/4 liter of Niagra and 3 Liters of Concord. I think it was outstanding. That's just the opinion of my wife and I. I'll probably blend some of the Concord with the Catawba when I get ready to bottle. Its was a worth while experiment. Now next October when we get Catawba from Presque Isle, I'll have to get 2 buckets of Concord instead of one.

On the agenda for today is cutting up and splitting the wood from my Mulberry tree that we had cut down this week. It was too big and hasn't produced berries in almost 3 years. Will make good firewood this for the fire pit.

Just did my weekly weigh in and monthly tape out... 43 pounds lost and 21 inches down!!!! I'm feeling great and off all my meds! Have not had reflux in 2 months, and the little heart burn from spicy stuff was concurred by 2 tums!!! I am insanely happy right now!

If I can get this homework done and my grocery run done I will be starting a new batch of wine tonight... fingers crossed!!!

Im wondering if any of my neighbors have called the cops yet, I'm out planting my very first grape plants and the smile on my face has to say "I'm breaking the law".
