Close to our house is this old barn, completely overgrown with wild grape (I’m not really sure about its proper name, we call it “Wilder Wein”). This plant is often used to cover walls but it damages the plaster covering the stones with its suckers. However, the colours in autumn are so magnificent that people put up with it. On this particular date 22-11-22 I found a wine walk particulary fitting (it is also our wedding anniversary).

Since the weather has changed it’s more fun to go to the fields in the plain again. The sun is out but temperatures have dropped and the wind on the bike is really nippy.
These are not left-over from Halloween but from the fruit growing season. The plastic covers have already been rolled up and will be stored for next year, the tubing will be dissassembled soon and also put in a barn.
