Baruch atta Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha'olam, borei p'ri haggafen.
Blessed are you, L-RD our G-d, King of the Universe, Creator of the fruit of the vine.
This is the blessing that we make each Friday night over our wine or
grape juice, as we welcome in the Sabbath. Today, we visited Arrington
Vineyards and enjoyed seeing the 'fruit of the vine' while it is still
ON the vine. It was beautiful.
 |
| It was a clear, sunny day. |
 |
| First thing we did was get reservations for a free wine tasting (that we didn't end up staying for, but hey, that's okay) and bought a bottle of Arrington's own Reisling. Lots of people had the same idea. |
 |
| Look closely--those are horseshoes. If I am understanding properly, a cowboy named Kix owns the vineyard...hence the horseshoes, maybe? |
 |
| My love. |
 |
| My other love. |
 |
| And my OTHER love. Wow--that's three. How cool is that? |
 |
| This barrel holds 676 gallons of wine. That's a lot of wine. |
Okay, now at this point in the day, the camera starts getting passed around, so I am honoring the work of many Grant photographers here:
 |
| Extreme closeup--that's Belle's specialty. |
It was a good day.
