Early morning musings...

Since I can't seem to sleep past 5 AM on this vacation I thought I would muse to you a little.

• Have I told you we are staying at the Hotel Luca in Yountville. It is a great new hotel that looks like a little Tuscan Villa with a great courtyard. The hotel only has 20 rooms and neat features like a heated bathroom floor and turn down service with cookies (that I cannot eat for 5 more days).


• Yountville is a great little town that my friends Andy and Leigh introduced me to when they got married. Thank you Blums!


• We spoke with MarieElena (our house mate) who is watching our dog Cody for the week. Supposedly he is being a little angel and sitting in the living room and watching the door, waiting for us to come home.


• We miss our friends Aaron and Diana who were supposed to come on the trip with us. And Heather and Jon who I forgot to invite.


• I am just typing Kristy's name in here because she would be ticked if I didn't mention it after referencing other friends.


• Headed to more wineries today with our driver Kevin. Kevin called yesterday and asked for some wineries that we wanted to go to. He basically said all our wineries choices were bad and he could do better. I kindly asked him to follow the map I provided. He also asked what my wife's name was. I said "Mike". He said "Just the boys today, huh?" Should be interesting.
