It Continues

But wait, there's more:

Friday we were lucky enough to have Natalie and Maggie join us on our trip to Sonoma. Kevin is working hard to develope a better ebook for Sony. He is a reader, but not an e-reader. I used to be an e-reader and this is a good device for that. It only does one thing - books. It's fun to see how this can be modified to give it features that would make me want to buy it as well.


We four drove to Sonoma to meet Cindy and Eric. Cell phones are little miracles. How would we have known what to do without it? We knew where they were at every step and could make reservations at the Girl and the Fig restaurant. Adrian and I are attacking the tower of cheese. It was expensive and not bountiful. The waiter said it would be good for a table as an appetizer, but extreme sharing was necessary. Adrian and I split a hamburger and salad. The food was good. I've wanted to eat there for some time. I'd recommend this.


Then we all went to the Chocolate shop, http://www.winecountrychocolates.com/. Rachelle's husband's cousin owns this place. They have great chocolate there. I didn't know that Karen had been there earlier in the day. We had tastes and purchased a bit and then looked for the wine tasting that was supposed to be in the complex. It was there, but closed.



We went back to Sonoma to drop Natalie and Maggie at the Cambells' farm. The kids, above, are in the wine tasting room of the farm. Pretty nice to have a bunch of wine across the street from your house. Adrian and I visited, I tasted wine and joined yet another wine club. Then we went on to Ramekins to check in just before going to eat yet again.


We joined my brothers and Eric's children
for dinner at the El Dorado Kitchen. You can't see them very well. I'll be using mine until I can figure out how to get full sized pictures from everyone else. The El Dorado Kitchen was very good. I had tomato soup and frito misto like vegetable tempura. I also ate Sandi's ricotta gnocchi. Loved the meal and the company. We had to have a kid's table. Adrian joined us old folk. The kid's table looked like a lot of fun, though.
