Although I flew down to LA, we drove home. From Santa Barbara to SF is about 6 hours. However, we mad the trip last about 10 hours because we stopped along the way. It is a beautiful drive with lots to see.
First up - We did some winery hopping.
First Stop - Blackjack Winery. This winery was featured in the movie 'Sideways'. The owners are very proud of this and had a lot of memorbilia up. Unfortunately, their wine was not that great.
Next - Firestone. You may remember that Bachelor Andrew Firestone was associated with this winery. However, we learned that his family sold it about 2 years ago. So, we didn't get to see him. I mean, not like he would be working the tasting room or anything!
Here's a shot of Bernice, on the left, who was a little nutty and was pouring our wine for us.
Last winery stop. This was in a town along the way called San Luis Obispo. We chose to stop here because the labels on the wine are tie dyed. haha. Its called the Kelsey See Canyon Winery. It was strange.
This winery was strange because it was small and stuffed with junk. It was like being in someones living room. They had a lot of peacock stuff for sale. They did serve wine that was half apple juice, half wine which was pretty good!
We also stopped at Pismo Beach to take a look.
Finally, after a stop at the outlets, we really headed home. We saw some crazy clouds. They were thick & looked like whipped mashed potatoes. So crazy.
And, that was our weekend! We had a lot of fun, saw a lot, did a lot, and had a great time!
