Gullwing

Just got back from a few days of wine tasting. After two years or so of bugging, finally went wine tasting with my parents. We would go every year or two when I was growing up, but once I turned 21... nothing.
The plan according to my dad was, three wineries in the morning, have lunch and three in the afternoon, +/- a few and we would not get more then two or so cases.
I knew that would not happen.
Got in late in the afternoon the first day, so we only went to three and picked up half a case.
The next day we ate and went to three wineries, we wern't hungry so we went to a few more... End of the day ten wineries.
The next day we ate and then went to thirteen.
We came home with nine cases, or about half our record.
As of right now I only bought one bottle, a magnum from our favorite winery. I wanted to get a really big bottle, we found one place that has 6 liter bottles which you can bring back and have refilled. $125 for the bottle plus the cost of wine, if we lived closer I would have done that.
I would tell my dad I was going to get a few bottles of this wine and he would say ok and buy them. Works for me.


After wine tasting we went to San Fransico to visit family. We found one of our tires was loosing air. Finally found slice in the tire about three quarters of the way home today. Had to fill the tire with air three times. Will have to get it replaced this week
At least it made it home. The last time we filled the tire I also checked the spare, also flat.
