Well on this beautiful day in the vineyard there was danger.  You may ask what danger.  Well if you were around last year at this time you may have remembered when the tractor slid into the pond.  Now in all fairness to the experienced tractor driver it was the first year after planting more vineyard right next to the pond and the ground was very wet.  But what is fair about having a good time with someone else’s mistake.  After all it takes the attention away from any tractor stories of my own.  We held our breath as we watched the tractor slide as it traveled down the row of vines but we stood motionless when he entered into the dreaded center row where it all fell apart last year.  As he approached the end of the row knowing that all eyes were on him he came to a crawl and inch by inch made the turn without any story this year!  Way to go!

Guys, this is as exciting as it gets when your mowing grass in the vineyard.  On a beautiful day at Youngberg Hill even mowing grass becomes something extra special.
