Our Vines Have Tender Grapes

The title of a 1945 movie seems appropriate for this image. Robyn, our resident landscape expert was cultivating in the school garden this afternoon as I took pictures. It was she who pointed out these tiniest of grapes.
BTW, here is a description of the aforementioned movie John always brings up when the subject turns to grapes:
"An endearing and quietly rhapsodic slice of Americana about a single year among the Norwegian immigrants in a Wisconsin farm town, Our Vines Have Tender Grapes enthralled 1945 audiences and critics with its timeless joys. Told from the viewpoint of little Selma (Margaret O'Brien), the film explores grand childhood adventures: making friends, a pet calf, Christmas, a terrifying trip down a flood-swollen river, a barn fire and a ride on a circus elephant's trunk. In a change-of-pace role, Edward G. Robinson is a revelation of wisdom and compassion as Selma's father, leading a fine cast that illuminates the profound power of everyday triumphs and sorrows." One of these days I'm going to track this film down.

Nice DOF. Sounds like a movie I'd like...
