OK, for some of you, maybe it would not be a big deal. But for Sher and I our trip to the Buck Creek Winery was the first time in a year that we actually went out and went into a store. Yes a place where people go, talk, buy things and act kind of normal.
Our son drove us out and about today. Yesterday we noticed that our wine supply was running, well, low. So off to the Buck Creek Winery, about a half hour from our place. We had our masks on and there was only one other customer in the winery when we went in. We felt comfortable, Joseph set us up to have a sampling of 6 different wines.

Our assortment purchase today
We ended up buying a case of assorted wines after a fun sampling experience. We belong to the Buck Creek Winery case club, which enables you to enjoy a 20% discount on case buys. Refer to the Buck Creek website for details.
Even though we have had our first dose of the Moderna vaccine, we were still somewhat leery of getting out. But we felt ok at the Winery today. Joseph maintained social distance, was most polite and informative and he poured our samples. Oh, it was different wearing jeans with a belt instead of sweat pants.
My dad has only been out to one Dr. appointment since last March. He has now had both doses of the vaccine so I’m hopeful that he will get out more. Sounds like you’re all set for a while with all that wine. 🙂

I hope your dad does get a chance to go out. Maybe even to a nice park away from strangers as a start back into the public? We’re starting tho think of “safe” public places…

How nice to get out and about, aye! I wear sweat pants in the house too, but always short pants year-round. I’m glad you two had a nice outing. Your young man is a good chauffer.

You would whine if ran out of wine. You dressed up for the outing. Good for you. It sounds like a productive outing.
