Wineslinger living in Vermont Commons

Following is a Houston Chronicle story by Dale Robertson. For further information regarding books sales and signings go to www.wineslinger.net  There will be a book signing at Barnes & Noble March 10 from 2 to 4.

Russ Kane may be a transplanted Texan, but he has come to understand the people of his adopted state as well as anyone, and he believes Texas winemakers are the epitome of our species.

“Tell a Texan he can’t do something,” Kane said, “and he’ll kill himself trying.”

The only reason the state has a burgeoning wine industry, which Kane lovingly explores in his new book, The Wineslinger Chronicles, is because our stubborn vintners simply won’t take no for an answer from Mother Nature. Heat, hail, drought and, worst of all, late frosts routinely make life miserable for growers and winemakers from East Texas to the Hill Country to the High Plains.

New Deed Restrictions Map

The Deed Restriction committee has, after much labor, brought forth an updated version of the Deed Restriction Map. The VCCA was founded in an effort to ensure that certain minimum construction rules were followed. Property owners were allowed to opt in or out of the restrictions. Owners were given one year to respond. If they failed to respond the restrictions were applied to the property by default at the end of the year.
The entire deed restriction document is available on the Deed Restriction page, which you can find on the column on the left, and now the accompanying map is available.
