Adult Day!

Well, Todd and I were able to enjoy a day away from the boys. Just a 25 minute drive up Highway 154 and you find yourself in another world...up in the Santa Ynez Valley. It is so pretty up there this time of year. The weather was perfect, warm, but not too hot. In tow we had our dear friends, Jimmy G, and his daughter Kelly, w/ her boyfriend Ryan. We all share a passion, WINE! We all are members of the Gainey wine club, and every year they throw a "Crush Party". This is to kick off the beginning of the new wine season. And yes, we did "crush"...
I got the crush party started...

Then Kelly joined me...

Finally the boys got enough guts too...

The grounds are absolutely gorgeous up there, the land sprawls for miles w/ rows and rows of vines. Here is the whole gang...

I had to take some pictures that captured some of the beauty of our surroundings...



All in all, a fantastic day with amazing friends. Can't wait for our next Santa Ynez event!

This might have been "Adult Day" but you looked like a bunch of kids having way too much fun! Good for you!

I am jealous that I wasn't there but I would never put my sweaty feet in that bucket of grapes.
