~Along the back fence line they grow all over~ ~Delicious ... Bullis Grapes of the Muscadine family~ ~When ripened they are a large bronze-clolored grape~ ~LOL ... the only 'wrath' could be if you drank too much of the wine~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

MartieSis~ I only grow 'em and eat 'em ! I just never had a hankering for that 'other stuff' in any form~ BUT ... when I was the Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce in Clermont, FL, I brought a new winery industry to the area~ Lakeridge Wineries has expanded greatly since, with award winning labels~ You can order online if you'd like to take a look at their varieties~ www.lakeridgewinery.com Love you~ ~*Me ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I'm an eater not a drinker too. I love, love Concord grapes and they don't sell them in baskets like they used to. They put them all into wine. So I have some vines but I have to fight the birds to get a taste and we don't get the frosts that turn them sweet. I miss those baskets of concords. Joyce |

Dear Marge: Enjoyed the picture and the sentiments! We don't see much variety in grapes around here. Green or red seedless and that's about it! Betty Lou Hebert |

I have passed Lakeridge so many times on the way to the airport in Orlando. I keep promising myself that someday I will stop and tour. And yes, I have made my own wine for the pleasure of my friends. Don't touch the stuff myself...lol the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
