On Sunday we took Scout with us to the wine pick-up party at Wimberley Valley Winery. It was such a pleasant afternoon, but we didn't bring any card games to play or get there early enough to snag a table, so we decided to take him by a distillery nearby, Treaty Oak Distilling Co.
We got there around 3 p.m. and was surprised that it wasn't busier, but they weren't offering tastings and didn't have any live music happening. Plenty of folk were enjoying the wide open spaces - a lot of them brought their kids, since there is a playscape and lots of horseshoe and beanbag pits. And they had helicopter tours, although we didn't plunk down the $45 apiece it costs.
Hubby and I had just visited them on Friday and took a tour of the distillery. They make bourbon, rum, vodka, and gin. It's a neat place, and the tour came with a tasting.
Scout declined a drink, settling for water. He's not much of a fan of drinks, but Dad and I enjoyed a cocktail while we all watched the helicopter come and go. The weather was unbelieveable for "winter" - temps in the high 70's.
We were only there a short time, but it was lovely. This week I am setting out some sussies for my menfolk on Tuesday morning, but we probably will not *celebrate* Valentine's Day. Hubby goes to see the eye doc for a pre-op on his cataract surgery, and Bubbie has solo and ensemble performances with band. We've got some severe weather in the form of rain in the forecast tonight and I plan on sleeping right through it!
What does your week look like?
