I was supposed to be seeing Def Leppard and Bryan Adams on Wednesday night, but then Courtney's drama teacher changed their play from Thur to Wed, so I had to sell my tix. I hate this time of year! So much to do......only a few nights to do it all in.

Our weekend was awesome. It was weird to feel the rush of blood back into my alcohol system......

So much wine. I think between Fri, Sat, and Sun, I probably tried over 130 bottles of wine, and only loved about 7 of them, and purchased only one. It's this incredible Syrah....oh. my. god. Won't be able to drink just any crap anymore. Only $35+ bottles from here on out.

We had a blast!! On Saturday, another couple joined us for lunch and then the mid-afternoon tastings, then Kelly and I spent the evening on our own. Dirty Martini (the band we love) did a three hour set and we got there and ordered dinner about a half hour before they went on, we had a front table that was almost uncomfortably close (these chicks are cute, a fact that hasn't gone un-noticed by my husband), but DAMN I think I'm crushing on them. www.dirtymartinimusic.com I'm going to see them on Thursday night.....they'e playing where my sister's doing her weekend wedding party at the end of July (not really a reception, as it's a month after they're getting married).

On Sunday, my sister called.....she and her fiance wanted to join us, so we did two looooong tastings at two of the bigger wineries, which were both serving food and had music all day. That was fun. But we didn't really get any time to ourselves....which had kind of been our plan. Oh well.

Now we have just 160 or so more wineries to try..... Gotta love living near wine country.....and having in-laws IN wine country.

Jack: Tastes pretty good to me.
