Walla Walla Wine

This weekend Tim and I took our first overnight trip without Sophie and headed up to Walla Walla Washington with some friends to do some wine tasting. We found some pretty good wineries, but mostly we had a really fun time with great friends. 21 wineries in two days....yes, we're a little crazy about wine.

Our first stop - Seven Hills Winery. After several hours in the car, we were ready to stretch our legs and drink a little vino. Bummer it wasn't the greatest - well, okay, the whites were okay. The reds were another story. But we tried to remain optimistic.


After several more wineries, we'd gotten into a groove. This is at one of the more picturesque ones...Trust Cellars. The best part? They had a wine named Sophie there.


Drinking more wine at our campsite. Ben treated us with a bottle from one of our favorite spots - Tamarack Cellars. You would have thought that by dinner time we'd be sick of wine, but not us!

















Our last stop on the way home was at Maryhill Winery in Goldendale. It was absolutely gorgeous there and had beautiful views of the Gorge. A great way to end the trip. Then....played catch phrase in the car on the way home and laughed till we cried. Thank you Arthurs for a great trip!
