Labor day...
Symphony and fireworks and beer, oh my! Last night was Napa's labor day celebration, and we walked in to town to watch the fireworks. So in my first 3 days in the US I've been to the gay centre of the universe, eaten burgers for breakfast, gone wine tasting, seen giant US-style fireworks and bands, had beer in the park from a plastic cup, and then today...
...had breakfast in a rather nice restaurant atop the hill. The Wine Spectator Greystone, at the CIA. no, the *other* CIA- the culinary institute of america. Champagne cocktails and smoked salmon- yum!
Had a wee chat with Erich later today as well- its so frustrating to be on the same continent, a whole 10,000 miles closer, but still so far away!! I want it to be Thursday already...
We're off to the Eagle or Lonestar beer bust tonight, that should be fun... :-)
