Pine Ridge

we went to napa this weekend with my brother in law and sarah and had soooo much fun! we stuck to the main road this time, visiting Pine Ridge, Balducci, V. Sattui, and Silver Oak. was there another one?

the weather was really nice and the scenery was perfection. it's rained so much this year that everything was green and wild. i couldn't believe all the yellow!

it's funny because i tend to stick towards my favorites, so i really enjoy trying something new (in very small and expensive doses). i'm no expert, but i have really narrowed down what i like and what i don't.

next week we start our wine appreciation class and i'm super excited. the guy who teaches the class is one of my favorite people in the world, so i'm pretty sure my tuesday nights are gonna be fantastic. hey, i have to go back to texas with something!

actually, we have a place in vacaville called WineStyles. it's a little spot to sample wine or buy a bottle or two and share with friends. they have a good selection and live music on saturday nights. there's kind of a wild older crowd that goes on saturday nights though... yikes. i'll just warn against bringing two handsome 30 yr old men to cougar-ville!

but back to the point, maybe they're wanting to expand to san antonio, tx and want a spunky little 30 yr old girl to head up the operation. i think that i'd have just the girl for them. talk about a dream job.
