We did a long drive today (6+ hours) and arrived safely in Ashland, Oregon. We're at Emigrant Lake and it's lovely. It just started sprinkling so I think we'll head out for some groceries and a little exploring.

Kevin finished up at the conference and came back to the Airstream this afternoon in time for us to take a nice 17 mile bike ride. We rode to the store and got some supplies to make burgers (grass-fed beef, chorizo, lettuce for buns, tomato, gorgonzola, and some yams to…

Last night in Calistoga (after we got back from our lovely nighttime bike-to-the-market trip to stock up on some quality groceries) it started raining again pretty heavily. I woke up in the middle of the night because it was INSANELY loud and I opened the Accuweather app on my iPhone…

Today we rode our bikes over to Chateau Montelena. If you've seen the movie Bottleshock, or if you know about the 1976 Paris blind tasting upset (also known as the "Judgment of Paris") when a California Chardonnay won first prize over its French competitors (unthinkable!), then you'll probably have heard of this…
