It only took me two years, but I’m back giving all the support to 14 Hands Winery. Why I forgot to write about them last year as we approach the heart of horse racing season is something I can’t explain. Maybe it wasn’t meant to be. But why that is I don’t know. But here … Continue reading Wild, Wild Horses
I have been waiting for over a month to write about this wine. And the time has arrived. The time is now. I shouldn’t be so melodramatic. But I’m having fun here. Over the course of this blog I’ve really tried to hit home my love for blends. The triumvirate of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and … Continue reading Only The Horses
As promised, this is the continuation from last week. It’s part two of my vacation. Which was more of a home away from home. And I love home. It’s safe, peaceful, and a shelter from the sometimes chaotic and frenetic pace of the rest of the world. And I love company. I love the company … Continue reading Oh What A Thing To Do
After a year off, my pals and I made our triumphant return to the Maryland Renaissance Festival a couple of weeks back. Here is my inaugural post from October of 2015.

I’ll watch clips of them, not just during this time of year, but at opportune times where I feel I need some inspiration and something to … Continue reading Preakness Special
I had the great honor of once again being invited to a dear friends’ house for an Easter lunch/dinner that was also home to one of a few Thanksgiving Feasts (post is here) I’m grateful to have been invited to. It’s the holidays once again. But not those holidays. They’ll be here before you know … Continue reading So Much To Celebrate
The Expedition Merlot from Canoe Ridge Vineyard was a given to me nearly three months to the day, as a Christmas present. I wanted to find the perfect time to uncork it and enjoy it in all its glory, and in all its majesty. Before even opening the wine, I was in awe of the label. … Continue reading The Great Expedition
My mini Susquehanna Heartland Wine Trail Tour continues from last week with the second stop being the beautiful Brookmere Wine & Vineyard Inn. This is one where I wish I had spent more time than I did. But the energy didn’t seem to lend itself to more than a few minutes visit. Once again, as … Continue reading Never Be Enough Time
