Romance in the Milky Way
The anticipation of the weekend was palpable. Driving into the country with no lights and little to no street markings - we drove into a driveway that looked like a bed and breakfast to quickly find out we were in someone's driveway. I am really glad Brad didn't take my advice and just try the key in the door. We could have had a whole different story about Valentines 2010. Once we found our way to our private getaway, I stepped out of the truck and could feel a blanket of stars on my shoulders. The sky was so clear we could see the astroid belt among the millions of stars and even some planets. It was awe inspiring! We spent the next day touring and tasting at five different wineries in the hill country. Wine is kind of like people- Its's all made of the same basic ingredients but the differences are vast and endless. Not mention that we get better with age. It was a wonderful day in the back of the Lincoln stretch limo between wineries. We spent the late afternoon napping on the veranda overlooking the river on a huge lounger. The heat of our skin taking off the chill of the air. I slept on his chest until the sun went down. We did not make our fancy dinner reservations as I had a better offer. It going to be difficult to top this Valentines!
