darin's showing me grapes

MUMM WASN'T SO COOL, BUT PRETTY.
bad service and the chick never really explained the wines and sparkling champagne, then left and we had to get service from another server, who then explained the NEW sparkling red champagne you can only buy at Mumm.

PARADUXX WAS COOL.

awesome descriptions of wines and beautiful facilities.

Duh - Go to Cali and not visit wine country? Please. It was the best ever - especially if you know someone who works in the industry. Winery's will either give you a discount or complimentary industry tours and free wine tasting. We took advantage of this. We found in our travels that the best places were Paraduxx and Quintessa. Mumm's was horrible service, although they have a great new sparking red champagne that was to die for. Tastings can run from $20 to over $100 - depending on what winery you visit.

Cali Chronicles: This Man

Driving through the streets of San Francisco - where UC of Berkley is - we came across this homeless man that totally wins for the most fashionable bum I have ever seen. Like seriously, look at his coat, then look at the impeccable red undershirt that matches his awesome red hat. Must have picked through some nice clothes on his way to work on the streets. Next he needs some dentures.
