Wine-ing and dining


We have a winery close to our place in Maryland called Boordy Vineyards. Today, they started up their annual summer concert/wine tasting series. Each weekend on Saturday and Sunday in the evenings, they play music (and have different music each week) and this week was 80's music. Of course, we had to go. Our friends Kelly and Joe were giong and invited a few friends. It was a potluck event and I made a salad. It was great; we staked out a huge area on the grass and were able to walk around, meanwhile, other people had these teeny little spaces because they didn't plan well enough ahead when they got there....too bad! I decided to have some Reisling... because I find that I've been tending towards the sweeter wines lately...atleast for the white wines. I took along a plastic wine glass that I have...on that has a light in the base that changes color... really neat when it starts getting dark. EVERYONE WAS JEALOUS! (Except for the ones that had the same glass, I suppose:) It was just nice not having to think about anything and just having a good time with friends... again. I wish that this was a picture of the winery... unfortunately they didn't have any good ones on their site for me to include.

Hey Todd,

We have just been introduced to a Reisling that we like from Costco. It's Saint M. We went to a Mother's Day dinner in Laughlin and they served a Covey Run from Wash. state that was really good. We know very little about wine and usually just drink white Zin but we're trying to broaden our horizons! Ryan tells us you're planning on attending his wedding. That's great and we look forward to seeing you.
