BLESSING OF THE VINES 2010

It was a beautiful day as a small crowd gathered at the top of the hill between blocks one and two on the hill of our farm. A small table filled with glasses was placed in front of the rows.

Laura, our fabulous tasting room manager, was busy setting up, and looked forward to the busy day ahead.

We all awaited Father Gary Gelfenbein's arrival. He was as effervescent and cheery as ever. He was dressed in a khaki colored suit, some beautiful shoes, and a crisp shirt and collar.

Kate Lankin, from Local Ocean was there along with her father Mike and her husband Walt.

It was a beautiful day and the crowd was enthusiastic.

His blessing was brief and welcomed, and was followed by a toast and fun and lively conversation.

Thank you everyone, and especially Father Gary!
