What's the suggested atire for the cave dinner? I asume it will be cool in there.
We will have space heaters in the cave. Last year I had my jacket with me but never needed it.
I'm wearing jeans....no need to get fancy! Most of us will be tromping around a vineyard before we get there. Chris | | | |

| | On the off chance that someone has an extra set or two of 6 bottle styro shippers/box, I'd be grateful if you could PM me and bring them... Didn't realize how big these damn 12 bottle ones are. I'll gladly pay you in salami :-D | | | |

Well, maybe... What is this world coming to? Chris in long pants... Eric wearing shoes...
Bressler making Pinot... Next thing you know Screaming Eagle will be making Pinot!
Oh wait! They are making Pinot! Eric, You can't wear shoes in the cave. I mean I remember the first time you were there. It was pouring rain and the cave was still, well, a cave; just dirt. There you were drinking 2001 Kanzler wiggling your toes in the sand. I can even point out the exact spot.

| We are finally here. Edit that the time stamp on this post is two hours off because I can't figure out how to change it to West Coast time. Remember Happy Hour tonight at our place at the Vitner's Inn tonight at 5:30. Building 4, go up the stairs and we are in a corner room. I'll crack the door so you will see it when you come up the stairs.
One of our champagne stems broke in transit so if anyone has an extra I would be much obliged if you could loan one. Otherwise you will see me with a stemless glass, the newest latest thing. LOL. | | | |
