Triskadeckaphobia Thursday #489!

[Pinot's Mom]

Hi y'all - we're back! Just returned from Bethel, NY - time to catch up...

Brought some wine from a local vintner up there - any takers? I'll take some popcorn to go with, and tell the story of the weekend.

We checked into the B&B and, much to my husband's delight, were told that due to the Catskill Mountainkeepers event the next day, there was a BEERTRUCK outside; we were told to settle in (to an upgraded room) and come help ourselves. We had good conversation with the proprietor and some others, and really good microbrews. We were not involved with the event; were there for other events, but Ela (owner of B&B, host of the event), said we were welcome, so we stayed all afternoon, listened to some good music, impassioned speeches (from, among others, Debra Winger), had good beer, excellent food and conversation. The next day, we went to the Woodstock museum at Bethel, had dinner at a good local place, and went back for the Furthur show that evening at Bethel Woods. This morning we went to the original Woodstock stage site, took a few more pictures, and came home. Really good weekend overall! Hope y'all had the same!

Hey, glad you had a good time! You were only about an hour and a half away from Lady's Human's crew, too! I'm far more partial to Upstate NY than the city for sure!

Pinot's Mom, was that Pazdar's Winery? They come to the farmer's markets in Peekskill sometimes.

OMDL,

I just cannot help myself.......


Peeskill?

Isn't that being able to hit the bowl while standing?


Now, back to our regularly scheduled program.

Karen,

I loved SoCal.

Especially the area near ElLay. A little metro and the ocean and mountains. All in the same day.

PM,
Sounds like a great trip!

Glad you had a good time.

No-no-no Richard. It's PEEK-skill.

One of those moments - there's thread called "The cat came back" so the old song in a minor key is running through my head!

So glad we got rain - drownpours even!

It's called Eminence Road Winery. Very small operation; non-filtered, minimal process, they stomp the grapes with their feet! Nice guy that runs it, though.
