And the fun continued...

On Wednesday the six campers; Jim and Della, Mike and Sandy, and Ted and I went wine tasting in the Alexander Valley area.  Our first winery was Johnsons' Winery.  We had all been there before.  In the 1970's Mr. Johnson (the owner) bought a huge pipe organ that was in pieces.  His dream was to put it all together in his tasting room barn.  Tada!  He did it.  They select a song from the computer and the organ plays it.  Unfortunately I didn't take a picture of the pipes but it is really beautiful organ. 

From there we planned to go to Murphy Goode Winery but when we got there the name was changed to Vintner's Signature Winery.  Murphy Goode still owns all of the grapes out there and are a part of Vintner's but the tasting room was moved to Healdsburg.  So we tasted Vintner's wines.

Next was lunch at Jim's Store. It is a cute little place and a deli more than a store.  After lunch we went to Hopland to our last winery of the day.  It was suggested we visit Milano Family Winery by our friends David and Carol Prime.  The owners Ted and Deanna Starr have been friends of theirs for a long time and they were in a "Gourmet Dinner Group".  It is a fun winery with lots of critters including Willie the pig!  The rooster that looks dead, isn't!  He was digging a hole and looking for bugs!

They had lots of cute things for sale in the winery and some good wines.  They also had a chocolate wine sauce that was to die for!

We got back to the campground and barbecued steaks, tried some of our new wines and had strawberry ice cream with the chocolate wine sauce for dessert!  I think we died and went to heaven!
