We met Bruce and Laura and Rick and Gail in Harmony, NC for a weekend of wine tasting and fun. We all arrived at the campground Friday afternoon and got our rigs set up. We were isolated from the other campers (had they heard about us being rowdy in Cheraw?!!?) and had a nice area to ourselves. As the cold front moved in, we hunkered down in front of a campfire. Rick was our grill master and cooked some great brats. We all shared sides. I made Nancy's saurkraut with applesauce and judging by the fact that there was little left, I would say everyone enjoyed it. Dessert was mexican smores! Yum!!

Saturday morning we set out to tour the wineries. Laura was our driver and did a great job even though she had 5 backseat drivers! Kudos to her. We stopped by the Amish store to pick up some goodies for lunch but they were closed until 12:30 due to a funeral. So on we went to the wineries! Laura had raved about a wine combination that tasted like strawberry shortcake w/ chocolate and we were not disappointed!

Beautiful (but chilly!) countryside! |

The weekend was great fun and we all parted with "see you down the road". We probably won't see Gail and Rick for some time but will see Bruce and Laura in December at Huntington Beach State Park. Fun times and good memories!
That was most definitely a fun time!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the Deliverance post :)

So they were forewarned about you rowdy hoolagans.
ReplyDeleteWe're looking forward to another mini CC get together at Huntington Beach this December.
Y'all were a hit here at Cedar Point. Julie was still talking about your truck.
