This past Saturday I went to Stone HIll winery for a friend’s birthtday with 14 other friends. It would have been hard to top the day: the weather, the views, the fun, the friendship. I am sure people who know about wine might have some quibbles, but it was just fine for this newbie. Here are the pictures, click on the slideshow icon at the top right for larger and easier viewing.
Also, the very picture I was taking, whilst coming in for some gentle mockery in this post, is below. It reminded me of “The Dream of the Rood,” though I have no memory of whether they talk of vines in that poem. Well, it presented a nice image of the cross and Christ as the vine and communion, all rolled into one, for me at least.
