Harvest Dinner at Irish Vineyards

We attended a Harvest Dinner at Irish Vineyards hosted by Russ and Joanie Irish. It was about the harvesting of some of the wines. A winning number was attached to the bottom of my seat and won a few bottles of wine. Here are some of the photos of the event when we finally met Lisa Mayo from Calaveres County Visitors Bureau.

Twisted Oak Winery and Rubber Chicken Forest

Next stop is to the Twisted Oak Winery and Rubber Chicken Forest. Humorous experience of a winery. I'll never forget that we went into a cellar area to taste a wine that was still aging in the vat. The winemaker brought his dog on the tour and after we tasted the wine he said, "I hope none of you mind dog spit". He put the turkey baster in the dogs mouth to lick some of it. I guess he expected to use it in another wine. Here are some photos. A few on the way to the winery and one of the main building.

Moaning Cavern Park the Caverns

Nancy goes down into the cavern and takes videos.

I'm Moaning at Moaning Cavern Park

We are off to Moaning Cavern Park to visit the cavern and Zip Line. Let's begin with the cavern that I didn't go into. It's not that I'm claustrophobic, but it's the stairs. Nancy went into the cavern instead. You can see the map of the caverns. Note the stairs.
