Reviving an old thread, the family and I went to Harvest Fest this last weekend in Paso to meet up with Michael his gal Sarah and his good friend Dwight. We spent a great 2 days with them tasting and just having some fun. I'm still feeling the effects of the weekend Michael and gang drove down from SF and rented a house in Paso for a week, when I talked to him yesterday they were still going strong at the tasting rooms. We suggested they try to get up to Hearst Castle and if possible drive the coast back up, that being said there are several hundred tasting rooms in Paso and Michael and Dwight are serious about their wines, I learned more in a weekend about wine from them than I have in 10 years of drinking the stuff, so any wine reviews will be left to them when they get back. And as it turns out we have to be in SF this weekend for a Medical conference so if everything works out we will be able to hang out again a couple times before they head back to Alaska.

Awesome. Drinking (a lot of) wine with Michael is on my bucket list.

Very cool! I'm jealous of both of you! Did you take a break for Firestone Walker Brewery?

Did you take a break for Firestone Walker Brewery I believe they went there before we got there Sat. We've been there a couple times before and enjoyed it.

It was good to meet you and your family Michael. And I thought I was a dirty old man, till I met you and Suzan. I'm looking forward to having a good Dr join the staff at the local clinic. LOL
No Tom, we did not make it to the brewery. We were going to after having a couple pints of their stuff (very tasty), but just didn't make it happen.
Paso wine reviews will have to wait a spell. Two week vacations kill me for getting caught up with things. I would not have logged onto the Axiom sight for several more days or weeks if I did not have email notifications to respond to.

Lol, I'm afraid if we do make a trip up to Valdez Susan may like it too much, last thing I need is to live in a colder climate than I'm already in. And I think we are on equal footing when it comes to dirty old men.
