in other news...wait there is no other news because i've been working and working and working. that's right, another harvest has started as well as 10+ hour days. it's been A LOT of fun at patz & hall though...beer and ice cream treats always stocked in the fridge and freezer, an easy willingness to take the time to explain why things are done a certain way, and always a quick quip to make the day go by easier.i had my 1st day off in 2 weeks the other saturday, so i took advantage and got the hell out of dodge (aka napa). i drove up to bolinas friday night to join in on the annual colombo-glass oyster festival. the colombos, joe glass, and other family friends have been going up to bolinas to spend a weekend of oyster-eating, wine-drinking, and story-swapping for some time now. i've been lucky enough to get the precious invite a few times so that it was my 4th time to bolinas. those previous excursions came in handy as it was my 1st time to drive in alone. normally this would be no problem what with the advent of google maps and mapquest, but bolinas is reknown for its lack of road signage...so much so that generally the last sign you used to see said "bolinas 2 miles" with no further instructions. now even that sign is gone so that you have to really rely on your wits! i did make it without a hitch and spent a very relaxing day off where all i did was eat, drink, and make merry. not even the low-lying fog could ruin a pretty much perfect day!
