eeeks, ya, that's true. we were a no-show. we had good intentions, spent Saturday making our way to Sonoma, wine tasting our way through Napa, and realized it's REALLY hot when you're not in foggy SF. and then we just drank too much and were hungover by 8 pm Saturday night, so didn't set the alarm or anything.
sounds like we missed a good time. we'll be at Downieville fo' sure!!
