What a long, strange trip it’s been…

I’ve discovered how hard it is to keep a blog current.

I think it started last year. We were planning a wedding and a honeymoon, plus running the winery. It’s our wedding, right? No harm in taking a little time off – you only get married once (OK – twice…).

Then harvest arrived. We had a tough 2007 – not a lot of fruit. Nothing exciting to write about.

Pretty soon it’s like going to the dentist – you keep meaning to make that appointment, but it somehow keeps sliding to the bottom of the “to-do” list. And finally you’re just too embarrassed to do anything.

Sigh.

It’s been a great year – that’s the funny thing. We got married. Went to Italy for two weeks and ate and drank ourselves silly. Stayed in a freakin’ 5th century castle in Tuscany, for goodness sake (see photo).

I missed writing this blog. It’s good therapy, for one. It gives our friends and family a way to see where all the time and money is going, for another.

OK then – let’s try this again!
