Shawna and I aren't big wine drinkers (or big drinkers at all for that matter), but occasionally after Thanksgiving we go a little overboard and join some of our more "boozy" friends for a wild bus ride through the Yakima Valley to sample the many, many, many fine wineries that region has to offer.

 

We stay all weekend in a rental house at one of the wineries and travel the countryside in our very own "short bus" that comes complete with designated driver. It's a hoot and a holler, to be sure, and we even end up with a few bottles of great wine to take home and enjoy over the next year. But mainly it's just a good excuse to get out of town, bunk up with some of our best friends, and stay up late laughing and taking ice-cold November "night walkies" through the vineyards of eastern Washington.

 

See the video for a quick peek into the "short bus". Please view responsibly.

 

Bottoms up,
