Bravo!

Great photo - a person can tell where the "snowline" is on these mountains! There's
nothing better than clearing skies after the storm! Grande mountains! Grazie and take care!

Re: Bravo!

Thank you! This was taken in late August.
Here in the Alps area August has been a very cold and rainy month in the last three years.

Re: Bravo!

Well ... that means plenty of water for the grapes, right??? The vineyards!!! What time do they harvest the grapes? Is that in September??? I need to return to Italy again,
so I can find out all this information. Grazie
and cheers from AZ.

Re: Bravo!

Well...in the last years it happened that there was drought in Spring and too much rain in August, this I think is not good for the grapes.

Re: Bravo!

That shows you how much I know about grapes, which is not very much! Once in awhile, my wife gives me a little of her wine. All it does is makes me tired and I want to curl up inside a warm bed! Great Year 2008, Marco!!!
