Indian Summer or what?

Will have a bunch to tell about my trip east to visit sailor son and the Gannimals but first want to tell you about having a very nice time with two awesome ladies up in Mendocino County last Wednesday. Was invited to the family ranch of Leigh Anne with all her siblings and their families from all over the place who were out for the annual grape harvest. Well as it turned out the harvest was on hold for that week but toured all over the beautiful property on west side of 101 between Redwood Valley and Willits. Another friend who came was Robbi and I'm so glad because I had wanted a chance to get to know her better. We chatted and roamed in a 4x4 into the boonies just like we have been friends for years. Had a chance to sit on a wonderful deck at the family guest house and soak up the sun and eat cabernet grapes right off the vine. It was just a fantastic day. Am invited back this week for when the harvest is really going to happen but alas have other things on the agenda. Hopefully though between the three of us brainstorming about a writers retreat that Leigh Anne would put on, will be back up there soon and get a whole weekend stay. So enjoy this beautiful weather and don't let any spooks get you on Monday. Happy Halloween!
