Yesterday (8/17) we took the birthday boy, Carlos, to Napa to celebrate his 50th. It had been years since he had visited the region so any wineries were welcome. We visited August Briggs, Frank Family Vineyards, Vsattui and Alpha Omega. For a Monday, the valley was quite crowded -- this didn't get in the way of tasting though. The boys enjoyed quite a few flights.
Our evening wrapped up with a scrumptious dinner at Rutherford Grill; always an excellent choice for dinner. Their warm cornbread was hit and their prime rid french dip is out of this world. They enjoyed a good bottle of Alpha Omega wine with dinner and topped off the night with a keylime pie (with a pecan crust).
We enjoyed so many laughs (so many that our guts were hurting and we had tears in our eyes). It was a great birthday celebration.
Cheers to 50 more years for Carlos!
