weekending. . .

“Wine is the most healthful and most hygienic of beverages.” ~  Louis Pasteur



 He woke up this morning at 5:30, got up, showered and got dressed to go to work. He came in to kiss me goodbye around 6:15 and I asked him where he was going.... to work he said. 



I should have let him go, head out the door and drive to work. But I told him it was Sunday. He laughed and came back to bed. 



I am going to chalk it up to him spending over six hours at the Ford dealership yesterday. Wheeling and dealing with them over a new truck. He hates to spend big money like that. In the process he lost a day! 



We drive our cars  until they have no life left in them, so it was time. But I know it wore him out! 



Today we took it our for a drive and headed to Prosser where we stopped here to taste some wine. 



Then we headed here for lunch, where we had a pizza and shared this. Mascarpone mousse with mango and blueberries. 



 We passed these sweet dogs on our way home. 




But this shot is my favorite of the day. . . he and a friend looking at his new truck! Such a guy thing. But it is pretty nice. And it was time. 

Hope your weekend was awesome!

  3. Ha! This "going to work" on Sunday story made me chuckle.

    Once when I was still teaching I collapsed in our bed for a long nap on a Sunday afternoon. I awoke suddenly and looked at the clock - - - 5:30. I LEAPED out of bed so sure I was LATE getting ready for school that when I noticed the sun was already up, and had risen on the WEST side of the house I was SURE some catastrophic event had occurred and the world was all out of whack.

    I rushed to find Fisherhubby saying, "why has the sun risen on the west side of the house?!?"

    "Keetha, you goose, it's 5:30 on a Sunday afternoon!" said he.

    Whew.

  4. Cathy I loved the story behind all of this. The first paragraph made me smile and also the last paragraph made me smile even wider. We all have our passions as men and women. The moose looked wonderful.

  6. LOVE them looking under the hood :) Wine tasting is one of my favorite recreational activities. Are you a red or a white person? Sweet or dry?

  7. Better than not waking up for work, though... grin. A joyful post. New truck, nice wine, gorgeous dessert, all sounds wonderful. I keep looking at the dessert shot again and again, the light is amazing...
