Seavey, Ubuntu and stairs

The last weekend in May, Cecil and Greg came for a quick visit. First stop: Seavey for a personal tour by their charming winemaker :-)

Cecil, Greg and I beat Matt and Marcy to Seavey by a few minutes, so we entertained ourselves by watching the barn swallows do aerial acrobatics and by taking pictures of picturesque farm equipment.

It was crazy windy up top.
