Hello,
Absolutely you can pick what wine to drink as long as I approve.😉 I do so appreciate someone who loves and
knows their wine. As for dressing for a trip as @gingerw mentioned, I opt for fashionable comfort. If I don’t look good I don’t feel good...probably a little vanity there. Would rather spend more money for one classic outfit that I know I will always love rather than a few pieces that are just okay. You all know you have clothes that you choose all the time over the other ones hangin in your closet. Going to have lunch at the beach now and will let @jakeduck1 know what I ate.

@imallers late getting in here but the beach sounds lovely I use to love to go play in the sand and surf wine of course to relax and just veg out.

”Going to have lunch at the beach now and will let @jakeduck1 know what I ate.”
Spare me please, I'm not sure my stomach is up to hearing about it. I always shudder at the thought of hearing what you had to eat.
I have a question, If you’re such a wine aficionado why haven't you accepted some of the specialty wines I offered to send you?
Remember telling me how I’m supposed to be open and try various new foods, doesn’t that apply to you with your wine? If I'm supposed to be courageous enough to try some of the grotesque delicacies you suggest I believe you should be just as courageous in trying new wines?
Enjoy,
Jake

@imallears I really miss my wine-drinking days and visiting wine country in CA -- Napa, Sonoma, San Luis Obispo, Pasa Robles, Santa Barbara, and even Temecula! Back then someone gave me a sign that said "Wine Diva". I really learned a lot about the process and enjoyed learning about it almost as much as drinking it. It was difficult to give away so many choice wines when I was told I could not drink anymore. I never was a heavy drinker (well, maybe the day in Temecula I was. Being a fairly new AVA they were pouring many "tastes". My son became the designated driver!) but the one glass with dinner was so enjoyable, a nice way to mellow out at the end of the day.
Also, because I always wear comfortable shoes my feet have no bunions, corns, calluses or any of that. I've had pedicurists tell me I have "baby feet"!
We are going to Denver the first weekend in February. Yes, I will be packing some dark chocolate bars.
@merpreb If @gingerw doesn't want to shop and enjoy a day like you describe, meet me in Boston and we can!
