I just bribed an employee to cover my store today, so I could leave on time. I told him I'd give him a pair of skateboard trucks if he'd work from 2:45 - 5pm. Well, worth it from my standpoint.

| You're welcome, but I wasn't going to drink it. After a day like yesterday, I probably gained 5 pounds. I'll have to watch what I eat and hit the gym to get the wieght off. I hope you enjoy it. | | | |

| Ahh. indeed a treat board-o. thank you.
It'll be a nice change to the diapers I'm changing today. I have Uncle duties until 4pm. Then i'm heading straight to Aquila.
So anyone know the total # now? Back to 18? I'll call Aquila and give them a heads up the number has increased. | | | If you drink wine, you get smarter.... | |

| Ok, well I called and talked to Afrim. No problem with the extra people. I have 18 at the moment, but if there are 1 or 2 extra that's fine, he was just glad we called. He was also excited about the menu he'll be serving us, so I really look forward to tonight!!
But your best smile on too... got my camera charged and ready to go. | | | If you drink wine, you get smarter.... | |

| It was great meeting everyone of you last night and putting the names, monikers, and faces together. Only regret was sitting on one end of the table and not talking enough with those on the other end.
Next time I have to change my seat to get more time with everyone.
Thanks for the great time. | | | |

| I felt the same way armar. Big tastings are fun, and small tastings made from new friends at the big tastings are fun too. With that said, when we getting together at your favorite Island BYO? | | | If you drink wine, you get smarter.... | |

| Well, I don't know of any BYO on the Island. But I think I can find a place with a very nice list we can attend.
I'll let you know. | | | |

| Rev, are you alluding to Green Gables? If so, maybe soon before I end up leaving.
