wine... and other fun things in Paso Robles

Here is a cute shot of Corinne, Melanie & I celebrating Melanie's birthday a few weekends ago... wine tasting of course. These are both girls I work with.
A fun night out with old high school friends. Almost everyone came to town at once. It was like a little mini-reunion. We were extra celebratory because Hannah got engaged! The night consisted of the random combo of Japanese food and cosmic bowling... quite a funny time.
classic Mindy...
...a strange shot that looks like my hand but it's really Mindy's hand
seductive bowlers!


Harvest Weekend at Castoro with Corinne and Linda (and Tess for a little but we didn't get a picture). They had barrel tasting, grape stomping (too messy for me) and these big vats of grapes fermenting that you could stir, plus art, music and food.




Above are some pictures of the fun things I have been up to lately. They are sort of late in coming and ironically all I have really done for the last week or so is lay around the house re-watching the 1st season of 24 and reading. Rachel & I have both been under the weather and my nasty cold just keeps hanging on but it's been a great reason to take some much needed down time. As you can see by all these pictures life has been busy. I went wine tasting 3 weekends in a row but I finally declined this last weekend- 4 weekends in a row was just too over the top. Don't worry I am no alcoholic (I don't even drink during the week) but it is definately the thing to do around here and I keep getting invited to wine things so I've gone. It's pretty cheap and relaxing and so many of the tasting rooms are in beautiful settings, plus it makes me feel like I am taking advantage of living here in beautiful Paso Robles wine country. We also had a big Halloween party here last weekend. There are so many pictures I'll have to save that for another post.
