We had a wonderful night of wine, flat bread pizza and a spectacular view on Saturday night. One of the couples at our church owns Huntington River Vineyard and during the summer months they host an evening in the vineyard. We have been invited several times, however, it always fell on a night that something else was going on. This year we went. The vineyard itself is beautiful, although to be quite honest, I don't think I have ever been to an ugly vineyard. I was hopeful that Little Man would make it to sunset, however mommy slipped up and forgot to bring a drink for him and as he began to grow tired he started pleading for a drink. Alas, only wine is served in a vineyard so we headed into town for a drink on our way home. Next time I will bring a drink. The vineyard was a beautiful backdrop though, and a wonderful setting in which to spend an evening.
Then, of course, there was the food and drink. I quickly realized that while we have eaten flat bread pizza before, Little Man has never actually seen a flat bread oven. Andy and I were actually able to sit and talk with people, while Little Man watched our pizza being cooked. It was a delicious pizza that complemented the wine quite nicely.
With our bellies full, we decided to stroll through the vineyard. Actually, it was more like lug Little Man though the vineyard while enjoying the view. Despite the extra 45 pounds it was a lovely walk.
To top it off, I was able to obtain the first stamp in my winery passport. There will be more vineyards to come this summer.
