Well, the truth is I am not but I would like to. Annie and I have always managed to be quite busy in our life together but add a baby on top of that and it’s mind numbing just how busy we are. Annie works a full time job and does all the back end stuff for our blogs and I have two businesses and write 15 to 25 blog posts per month. Sammy is another full time job and we just recently (finally) closed on a house so we’ve been emptying a storage unit, started painting, and so on. Read more…

What is the Future of Paso Robles?
Someone that Annie and I know very well recently asked us these questions and it kind of got me thinking. Even though I have my opinions this question can be taken many different ways.

Paso Robles Wine and AVA’s
There’s been a lot of talk about the potential subdividing of the Paso Robles AVA into 11 (I think) different appellations. Yesterday I read a blog post by Fred Swan, and he made a lot of sense in his argument for breaking Paso down in to 11 appellations. Read more…
Wine Events: Just For Fun or Serious Business
I don’t know about where you live, but here in Paso Robles there are tons of wine events! Which makes sense since there are 200 plus wineries in the Paso area. My question is, is it possible to have too many events centered around the same thing? Read more…
Hey, What About All Those Adventures?!?!?
At the beginning of 2011 (yeah, I know, I’m going way back in time here), Hoot and I promised each other that we would complete 50 adventures before the end of the year. This was our attempt at getting out and about more in our beautiful area and beyond and reporting back all of our super cool and fun experiences to you. Read more…
15 Degrees C: The Place to Be
15 Degrees C
There’s this badass little spot on the main drag in Templeton that, in MY opinion, is a “must check out” kind of spot. It’s called 15 Degrees C Wine Shop & Bar but most refer to it as “15” or “15C”. Read more…
Google Plus Wine Chat
Yesterday on Google Plus four of us did a G+ Hangout about “green” wine with the subject being the Central Coast Vineyard Team’s SIP (Sustainability in Practice) Certification being the focus.

Our Three Favorite Wines from March
Another month bites the dust…again. So here we are with our top three wines from the previous month. It’s always a tough decision but we’re willing to put in the hard work to narrow it down to three wines. This month mine (Matt) were all reds and two were Cabernet Franc. That aside all three of my picks were 2008’s…interesting. So let’s get busy. Read more…
