Walla Walla barrels

Last weekend Genaro and I went to Walla Walla for the winter barrel opening. We had a great time and brought his daughter Marissa and her friend Erin on the trip.

Of course the grapes have all been harvested for the year but we enjoyed driving around the vineyards for two days and searching for the next stop. We hit 15 vineyards. I met a nice couple from California at one place. Californians all have a great tan. It comes from snorting shoe polish.

This is the front door of one of the wineries we visited. Pretty nice huh! Several of the wineries we visited had dogs. The dog at this place was an American Legion dog. He stopped at every post. They like dogs at these places because they wag their tails instead of their tongues. At the end of the second day we drove back to Vancouver and planned for another trip.
