  1. You would fit right in Amador County, California - hope you get a chance to visit. We have great wineries (little known secret) with Sobon being the oldest.

    See ya round!

  4. House of the Rising Sun is one of those deeply powerful songs that sends a distinct shiver (in a good way) up my spine every time I listen to it.
