for our anniversary celebration, we decided to follow a path of a movie.

we started pretty early... for a saturday.

we left lakewood at around 7:21am, after picking up something from ralph's and mcdonalds, and after filling the gas tank up.

it was a sort of long drive, but we kept ourselves amused. we decided to pass by a barnes and nobel for a pit stop. just our luck, they were selling maps on the wine tour and we decided to buy one. i also bought the latest nine inch nails cd and a heavy metal magazine to keep ourselves amused.

after 130miles of driving, we arrived at the local highway 154. it's a slow drive since it was a mountain path. i took a lot of photos of the marvelous scenery. our first stop was supposedly the foxen winery and vineyards, but we decided to go to the first one we see instead.

we saw Curtis first, but ahead was Firestone. We went to firestone, and as tep recalls, tells me that this was owned by that bachelor. we went ahead and tasted their line up. which i cannot recall which.

we found out that wine tasting in the curtis yard is complimentary if we have our firestone wine glasses. so we went and tasted there again.

i'm sleepy. to be continued
