Big Weekend
Finally, a pretty nice day without gale force winds. Because before today, the wind hadn't stopped blowing for at least four days. I have tried saying that "the wind is my friend," but frankly, it kind of annoys me. During a time that we usually try to spend a lot of time outside, it just hasn't been the greatest weather for hanging out on the porch. Even after Dad mounted a new television in a prime location back there, we just have had enough of the wind, already!
So our little community hosts the Sunflower Art, Food & Wine Festival and state wine competition. This year, I was a wine tasting judge, and what a great time that was. Truly, I was so surprised at the quality of Oklahoma wines, and I certainly want to seek out some others. Winemaking depends on many variables, but it was definitely encouraging to taste so many good wines from right here near home.
