[Sheepranch] Home Again

[Jim Franklin]

Not home yet 😊

In Philo for Andersen Valley Pinotfest. Nice, fun, event and some good wines. Bit of deja vu as well. Napa is a changed place, as predicted. Glitzy. But some down to earth places like Imola Cafe where I had a chili verde omelette the size of my head this morning. I could live there.

It has just changed hands and may be on the mend. We bought a couple of cases of very cheap wine that they are blowing out. Safe travels to all. =E
