This past weekend the boyfriend and I went to visit my artist friend Bob. He lives on the Northern Neck of Virginia. There are a handful of wineries there as well. We decided to visit wineries and Bob.

Saturday we went to two wineries on our way to Bob's. Once we go to Bob's we relaxed for a while. We took advantage of Bob's indoor poor and swam naked. That was SO much fun. I hadn't been in a pool in years. That evening we went to a Jazz event at Ingleside winery. We met some nice people and tasted some nice wines.

On Sunday we spent almost the whole day relaxing in the pool. I took some photos of the boyfriend relaxing at the pool and other places around Bob's house. That's always fun.

Sunday evening we went back to Ingleside because we were invited to attend and educational seminar about the components of wine. The event was very informative and fun. We ended the evening falling asleep while watching a movie with Bob.

Early Monday morning we woke up to hear about all the rain our area had gotten overnight and about all the traffic problems in our area so we decided to skip the wineries and get home. It took us about four hours to get home but we did squeeze in a short stop at one of our favorite wineries for a quick lunch.

We had a great weekend. We traveled almost 500 miles and I can report that my new Honda Civic Hybrid gave us 46.8 miles per gallon. That's a huge increase from my old Ford Escape that only ever returned about 18 miles per gallon.
