Whine Country USA!


Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Well, no lions and no tigers but we did see a big black bear while horseback riding in VA on Saturday. The Marriott Ranch is a very cool place to go trail riding and isn't a far drive outside of DC. Do you see the bear in the photo?
Afterwards it was on to wine country. It only took a little over an hour to find a winery that would sell us lunch. Long story but the first winery we went to was so exclusive that they only sold lunch to their "case club." Back in the car we went. The second winery was exactly what we were looking for. After the tasting we had a warm baguette, cheese and sausage, and a bottle of wine. Yummy!
Oh yeah, we also saw loads of butterflies and bambies on our trail ride.
