Live blogging from Wintergreen

Andy and I took yesterday off so we could enjoy a long weekend at our family's home in Wintergreen. We left early yesterday morning and got here in time for lunch and a round of golf at Devil's Knob Golf Course here on top of the mountain. I had a record round, shooting a 96, and Andy...well, Andy enjoyed the scenery ;)



We were also excited to see the new grill and deck furniture that my parents just purchased. We were the first to test it all out, and we are happy to report that the grill cooks a mean filet and excellent lamb chops, and the deck furniture is perfectly comfortable and will make for some great evenings on the mountain.


Today we drove around the mountian a bit and got some pictures at one of the overlooks. There was also a bike race going on, so we did some cheering as we watched the racers trudge up the mountain...phew, that looked challenging for sure!


We also went down to Wintergreen Winery (our favorite) and brought along a picnic. Liddy had a great time running around looking for sticks, and Andy and I enjoyed a nice Viogner and cheese and crackers. We also got a little bit of sun, which is always helpful this time of year as we are both far too pale for it to already be May!



On tap for tonight: BBQ ribs, cous cous salad, broccoli, and a Wintergreen Winery Three Ridges Red. Yum!
