A Street Fair And A Wine Fest

We had a fun and busy day. Larry and Mike played golf in the morning. While they were out playing, Lauren and I went playing too. We visited a local street and artisan fair, where one of our friends had a booth and was doing face paintings for kids of all ages. Lauren and I arrived early, just as it was opening up, so it was still a little quiet at first, but as we were leaving, more and more people started arriving.

Lauren and I were just strolling through the booths and enjoying the sunshine and each other’s company.

There was a guitar player playing his music, serenading the crowd.

Neither of us had eaten anything, and there was a taco truck calling out to us. So we ordered four different tacos, and each had two.

The tacos were very tasty too.

After the street fair, Lauren dropped me off at home, since Larry and I were going to a wine fest later on at our favorite winery, InVINtions, A Toast to InVINtions!

We always have fun at InVINtions. This time was no exception. There was a blues band playing, new wines to be tried and a BBQ. It was a members only party. Larry and I have been members for about 12-13 years. At first it was raining a bit, then it came down harder, so most people were inside. But after the rain stopped, everyone started coming outside to listen to the music and then there was dancing in the streets. Larry and I, and another couple we just met, had been outside the whole time, protected from the rain by the awning we were sitting under. We got to enjoy the music the whole time.

Before the event started, we were all welcomed with a Woo Woo punch, that was a wine cocktail.

Then we got to try the three new wines that were unveiled at the event.

The band was playing.

And there was dancing in the streets.

Yes, I was out there dancing too. I was also having fun with the staff, many of whom we have known and become friends with for years.

We always try our best to enjoy all that life has to offer. I’d say we do a pretty good job of it too. Life is good.

Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe, stay well, and dance in the rain sometimes. ‘Til next time.
