Thanks, Duo


Here's our "1000th Find" Asti, a gift from DinoDuo complete with the U of M shirt! Posted by Picasa

A Couple of Winos

We spent a great day on the Old Mission Peninsula. Dick is planning to put out a new multi/puzzle cache there. It'll be kind of an historical tour. We hit all of the high spots, and gorgeous high spots they are, too. Bowers Harbor Inn, the Bowers Harbor Boat Launch, Neahtawanta Inn, the Bohemian Cemetery (what an interesting place!), the Peninsula Fruit Exchange, the Stonewall House, the Old Mission General Store, The Old Mission Church (first time we've ever gone in to look around - fascinating stuff in there), Haserot Beach, the Cairn at the 45th parallel, Old Mission Point and Lighthouse, the Ogdensburg Cemetery (another super-fascinating place),lunch at the Peninsula Grill, Archie Park, the Archie Womans Club Park at the base of the peninsula, and Chateau Chantal, where we picked up our two cases of wine with our Basswood Bend labels.

There may be a more pleasant way to spend a day, but the only thing I can think of would be a day with our kids and Dylan!

Our Private Label wines will be fun to give away, or to put on the silent auction table at events. Or even to enjoy at home with a meal!


This one is Basswood Bend's MiGO Red, which is Nice Red from Chateau Chantal, and it is a very nice red indeed. Posted by Picasa

Here is Basswood Bend's Friendly White, which is a semi-dry Reisling from Chateau Chantal. It just happens to be my favorite wine. Posted by Picasa
