Our way of preparing for a monster storm?
Going motorcycle riding with our oldest and his friends while stopping in at a couple of those awesome Virginia Wineries.
Although I have been to the small and quaint Sharp Rock Winery a few times, looking at it from the vantage point of posting Barn Charm photos was a new opportunity.
We also had stopped at
Early Mountain Vineyards (formerly Sweely Estate Winery)
I am quite happy the old barn was spared demolition when the large stately
hospitality areas were built.
The new owners have made vast improvements since we last visited.
Inside was a fabulous tasting room
and outside plenty of space for relaxing
or if the spirit moves you...and you are as competitive as my Joey
a little game involving trying to catch a ring on the hook on the pole.
Joey won.
I lost count on how many tries it took.
(Or how many glasses of wine were consumed waiting for someone to score)
I do believe a good time was had by all.

Hope all my fellow Mid-Atlantic blogger friends stay safe.
I will be knitting and baking my way through the wind and rain.
And maybe enjoying a glass of wine or two..
