CHECKING OUT THE WINE MAKING PROCESS IN VIRGINIA

Sunday, June 8th after attending church and the annual church picnic Larry and I took a "Long" trip over to Crozet, Virginia to join a group of motorhome friends called The Gourmands.  This is a group that likes to EAT & DRINK.  The purpose of this trip to was to tour some of the Virginia Wineries and for most to sample lots of wine.  We toured 9 different wineries from Monday until Thursday and found some rather interesting places to eat.  
The heat was awful from Sunday until Wednesday through out Virginia and of course we had to have some severe weather for it to cool off.  Nothing too bad at the campground but over by our house there was some tree damage to some of our neighbors property.
We will be going to Greys Point on Thursday, June 19th with our Old Dominion Cardinals group and are taking Madie and her cousin, Lilly with us. They went with us last year and are looking forward to going again.
No more long trips scheduled until September when we head West to Branson, Missouri  with about 5 other couples.
