Erin and I got engaged on November 20th 2004 in Napa valley. I managed to actually plan a surprise trip, tell everyone we knew about my plans, and get Erin onto an airplane without her first figuring out (or someone telling her) where we were going. It's a crowing moment for me as I suck at keeping secrets and have a tendency to give up valuable information because I get excited about it. Not that time. She does know that we're going back...
We are going back to the Vintage Inn in Yountville, CA (right in the heart of Napa Valley) where we stayed the last time.
It is a beautiful part of the country and we ran across many very kind people. These kind people, as we found out, like to help you celebrate things. When we were there for our engagement trip we were given some of the "special" wines; a celebration for our newly engaged status. We hope to use our 1st year anniversary as a springboard towards more tasty and normally off-limits wine samples. Turns out that you can use personal celebrations to get stuff normally out of reach.
We leave on Tuesday the 20th and return on Friday. Can't wait!
