On Tuesday I headed over to the vineyard to take some photos of the property before the construction begins next week. As I walked around the property, I felt a bit of a bitter sweet sadness come over me. The sun was shinning but the air was cool and breezy. It was silent and I was alone, except for Chet and Betty, our two goats, who watched me through the fence. I had the distinct feeling that things were going be very different, very soon . Don't get me wrong, I am beyond excited that we are finally beginning the next stage of this project. It has been so long in the making that I still have to remind myself that we really are breaking ground next week.
But a
long with the evolution of our winery and vineyard, we, as a family, have to say good-bye to something very special. This property has been a haven for us all over the past years. We come here to escape the craziness of our lives and enjoy the company of those close to us. We come here to unplug and reflect on the simple things. We come here to feel the earth, feel the history that surrounds us. It truly is an indescribably special place.

Now, as read over this, I realize we don't have to say good-bye at all, but rather, welcome. It is time to share our special place with you. Time to create new memories that build on the old ones. Time to make some history of our own.
