A Winelover's Wanderings

It's a travel day today. Bill and I are heading to Paso Robles - even Hoochie is going along. But, there is a method to our madness. Bill is riding up with me and then we will rent a U-Haul so he can bring home my Mother's china closet and a few other items from my folks' house in Paso.

Hoochie is just along for the ride. We could have boarded her at home, but my sister will be in Paso too, and she wants to see Hoochie the Poochie. JoAnne will be retiring this year, and she is dying to have a dog, so Hoochie will be good practice.

Our goal on this trip is to sell our folks' car and give away our Mom's organ. So, I am off to CraigsList to put in ads.

Of course, I picked this particular week to make the trip because of the Slow Travel GTG there, the 3rd annual Slow Bowl. Shannon has organized this event every year (on Super Bowl weekend) and does a terrific job. We won't be able to visit the wineries this year with the rest of the group, but by next year we should have the Paso house sold and be able to participate fully. JoAnne and I will be at the Saturday night GTG - we wouldn't miss that for the world!

I hope to be able to post from there, but if I don't, I will see you on February 1st. As you can see in my sidebar, I have vowed to post each day in February, along with my compadres, the other February bloggers. Be sure to check them all out!

Bye for now!
