I spent most of the day finishing off tying down the Syrah canes. And dodging hailstones.
Beginning with my morning perambulation with V2 (when we both had to run and take cover to avoid being peppered with hail), I was interrupted, about every six vines, by another heavy salvo. The hailstones were very tiny, but plentiful. It was also very chilly, so the hailstones lingered in small drifts against walls, fences and tree trunks. And cupped in the leaves of weeds that grow in rosettes, e.g., dandelion, catsear, bristly oxtongue and this whitestem filaree (Erodium moschatum). Brrr.
I didn't have a lot of fun as I worked, but I did eventually finish the Syrah, yay! Now, on to the Cabernet Sauvignon.
