Episode 61: Wine Country
Friday, September 4, 2009 at 10:09AM “In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is Freedom, in water there is bacteria.” - Benjamin Franklin
Big E and I spent the Memorial Day weekend in Napa Valley, otherwise known as wine country.
On the drive up, the sun was up and the top was down as we made the six hour drive up the beautiful coast. Wind in our hair and smog behind us, we were ready to begin our weekend of palate broadening.
The weekend remains a blur. But I do recall amazing green scenery and fresh air strikingly similar to back home. And here I thought clean air was a thing of the past.
We toured the remote countryside, rode mountain gondola's, climbed castle walls and saw underground caves. All, with glass in hand.
Three days, ten vineyards and an absurdly unknown amount of alcohol. And of course, now 14 new bottles of wine sitting in my apartment. Good weekend. Great weekend.
