Awww Monday! October 12, 2020




Last weekend we spent a few days wine tasting
down in Dundee, Oregon. After tasting at 
a few winerys we had a delightful time
talking with this dogs family while waiting
for a table to be available at our favorite
Italian restaurant Nicks in McMinnville. 
It is always fun to meet up with friendly folks -
especially these days when we are so isolated.

  6. What a sweet dog! With that yellow line in the road it looks like he is sitting in the middle of the road, but I'm sure he was not. Glad you got out and had a good time.

  7. Ohhhhh Wine tasting....something (other than home) we have not done in a year. Usually every fall we visit my childhood friend and her hubby in NC Wine Country, Yadkin Valley. We always do wine tastings while there. Not this year. But fingers crossed we make up for it in 2021. What a handsome pup
