Split personality

What's going on here? The vines on the left (a small plot of white grapes) have been severely pruned and their guide wires have been removed. The vines on the right (a small plot of red grapes) are, so far, untouched. It looks to me like the white grapes will be pulled out of the ground and, hopefully, the parcel will be replanted. I'll keep you posted.

This parcel is adjacent to the houses of two of our neighbors.

Two more days remain before you-know-what. I voted (by mail) back in October, so I'm trying to minimize exposure to the chatter about polls and, well, everything election related. None of it will, or in fact, can, change my vote. I do scan the headlines, but the "noise" just makes me nuts.
