Some folks "wish they all could beat California girls" - I admit we are a hard act to follow (LOL), but DCG can hang with the best of us! They also say happy California cows make great California cheese - all so true. What they don't advertise are the great vegetables we have! LOL. The veggie of choice on Saturday was of course, a big yam! Those roadside veggie stands are something else, huh?

Had a great time in beautiful Amador and El Dorado Counties, tasting great Zins, Barberas, Syrahs - so much more laid back and less crowded than Napa and Sonoma Valleys.

Glad you had a great trip - next time its farther up the hill to beautiful Lake Tahoe and the land of the one arm bandits!

Absolutely - just say no to pinkies!!!!!
