    Wine-soaked Weekend

    Travel We are freshly back from our wonderful weekend in the Yakima Valley. We spent three days there and went to 13 different wineries and that was but scratching the surface. We will definitely be returning before too much time has passed.

    And when we do we might just stay again at the Birchfield Manor. It was a little pricier than the places we normally stay, but we had a large jacuzzi tube in our room and the outstanding breakfast was included.

    We also ate dinner there on Saturday night, and if you are in the area, I highly recommend the experience. The food was outstanding.

    We took a short ride on the Yakima Valley Trolley as well, which was a lot of fun.

    Our favorites of the wineries we visited were: Sagelands, Gilbert Cellars, and Windy Point. Although we bought some good wine at a few others as well (particularly the Grenache at the Alexandria Nicole Cellars.

    I'll be posting pictures from our trip soon, so check back often.
