I have more grapes than I need for juice and would like to try a grape pie. Is there a good recipe?

Try this:

GRAPE PIE

4 cups blue grapes
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp quick cooking tapioca
1 1/2 tbsps lemon juice
1 tbsp grated orange rind, or 1/2 tbsp grated lemon rind

Stem grapes and slip pulp out of skins. Cook pulp, covered, until seeds loosen. Press it through a coarse sieve to remove seeds. Mix strained pulp with skins, sugar, tapioca, lemon juice and rind.

Line a pie pan with pastry, fill with grape mixture. Cover with lattice or top crust. Bake in hot oven 10 minutes, then lower heat to moderate and bake until done- about 15 to 30 minutes longer.
