Libation Station... "The Wine Shop Chronicles"

warmups...

I've had little time to write these past two weeks as there have been many distractions, one of them being heat and the draw to scurryings outside and including Vitamin D absorption. There are also things in need of paint and trimming and neighbors waving barbecue under our noses such that the results of pounding on a qwerty device of maximum gigs or even a plain mechanical Underwood under such summer fever circumstances would have been of little use in the way of anything contributing . Sometime I'd like to pound on an Underwood just to here it talk. Other happenings: a wine dinner passed and with one on the horizon, Georgiann to be a an oyster shell castle building judge for The Mud Run at Taylor's shellfish farm, and then there is the annual Fourth Regatta float with the neighbors, roped rafts in tow and bubbly in hand and many well wishes and laughs from relevant shorelines and today it is raining. A respite? A pause? A pullback before full steam ahead into July and August? We hope so.

There is a new media approved "ism" being tossed about... a Staycation, the result of all things expensive due to the high price of gas. What a concept. Staying home with family, friends, and neighbors cooking and eating and laughing and we only remembered how to do that when gas started costing too much. Maybe gas should hurry up and get to $6 a gallon. Maybe the high price of gas had to do with it being priced too low. Hmmm.

For now its back into the shop for me with inventory issues and new pricing and orders to fill and all the fun stuff that comes back to haunt after spending too much time in the sun.
