Today John wanted to continue to celebrate his birthday weekend. Yesterday we went to the bar around the corner and had a few drinks with a couple people he works with. This is a bar he is more familiar with than I am, and people there knew him. It is also a kareoke bar. Let me tell you this, I like to sing and sometimes i can even carry a tune. But not in a bar, nope not gonna happen. But John did. And after a few too many drinks, he thought he was pretty good. I cant and wont even go into all the funny stuff we saw there. Some people, really think they are good, or maybe they just have the balls to get up there and sing. I dont know.
So we still had to pick up our wine from our wine club. I thought for sure after all the booze that John consumed last night, no way in hell was he gonna want to go to the wineries. I figured wrong. Damn. I really didnt want to go, but I had to go cus it was his birthday and I remembered he got me a spa day for mine. Crap. We got there and one of the wineries was having a barrell tasting, and when they do this, you have to purchase a glass to participate. We did, and started to taste. As john was doing the tasting, I was taking pics of the Piaza. I dont want to put all the pics on this page, but i will put some of them on.
Anyway, there was a live two man band, and lunch for 10.00. It was pretty good too, as was the band. I got a new necklace/choker type thing. It just wraps around your neck and hangs in the front. Its a stiff wire with an amber flower on one end, and three leaves on trhe other. I bought one bottle of my favorite Almond sparkling wine and John got three more wines for his collection. the weather was perfect, I think it stayed in the high 80's all day with a little breeze. We went to hungry hunter for dinner on the way home. It was a good day. Tomorrow is John actual birthday, so I dont know what we are going to do. Actually, I would like to just stay home, I like it here. We will see. Ok, so I am going to go transfer some pics to my flicker so I can show you some of the piazza.
