Lots of other things to tell but havent had time to use the net. Im heading home just after christmas so if i dont write before then ill catch up with people when i get back. Cheers Tony... read more

Well Harvest is finally finished and Sally and I have 2 days left and then we are heading to San Fran. I tell you what, this has been a huge experience with both good and bad things. Its a though adventure to move to somewhere you dont know and live with a bunch of people from around the world but when i look back over the last 3 months it was sooooo worth it. Ive decided the wine industry is not for me, but for all the guys and girls we live with, im sure they are goin to do great things for whatever winery they finally become a wine maker at. Geyser Peak at the start i thought was a pretty shit and disorganised winery, but now that i have learnt to adapt and work ... read more

Im currently at the Sonoma County Library because we still dont have any type of internet at the house, and that is mainly because the guy that was suppose to put it in got fired, so that sortta sucks, but hopefully soon i can put some piccies up to show all of you what the area we are in looks like. Ok so the day i left from Kentucky.... what a disaster, Steve got my flight changed from cincinnati to Lexington because the airport is like 10 minutes down the road and he had to work on the weekend, and i was like thats cool because i didnt really feel like driving an hour ... read more

Well finally we are back, i was getting sick of driving. Today we just relaxed, Steve and I were both tired... so we played with the kids and then did some killing on the Battlefield. The kids broke the rail on the stairs over the weekend, so i fixed that. They loved me even more after that. On Tuesday Steve had to work so Melissa was home and we spent the day doing some work around the house and I taught his Pierce how to ride a 2 Wheeler bike. It was great! We went out to Buffilo Wild Wings at had the hottest wings i have ever tested in my life. My eyes couldnt stop watering. On Wednesday Steve and I cemented his sons Basketball ring out the front of the house and went in ... read more
