Terri Gross had John Bradshaw on her show Fresh Air on NPR today. He's an animal behaviorist who talks to the same methods of dog training that we use to raise Sonoma and West. I suggest if you have an interest in dogs or training dogs, that you listen to this interview. Or, if you're interested in the approach we take with raising our two dogs - relationships based not on dominance, yet more of a family hierarchy - this interview explains just that. I haven't listened to the whole thing (yet), hopefully he doesn't change his tone halfway through!

Hopland Passport - 2011
I finally got our pictures from Hopland Passport on the computer. We got a million shots, a few came out nicely.
It was a lot of fun and the weather was perfect. A group of 9 of us attended the event. The tasting went from 11 - 5... We were very thankful to have shuttles driving us around!!
We took a walk along an organic garden at one of the vineyards.
The girls - Kim, Crystal and Becca
Us.
The vineyards put out food pairings for the wine. Some places had grilled foods, pastas, you name it...
