Wine Country

Over the weekend my parents were in town. On Saturday they headed to carp with Eric and we all headed up to Santa Barbara wine country. It was our first journey up there so we did not really know where we were going, but it seems like most of them are off of one road so it was not hard to find a few. The drive up is really nice - it goes through a national forest. The wine was ok, nothing impressive, but we just hit some random places. The wineries were interesting, they ranged from pretty snobby to basically a bar where you buy a wine glass and they just keep refilling. It was good to spend some time with my parents and brother.

The other thing I did over the weekend is watch the new family guy dvd. It was very funny! It is actually three episodes that will be on TV that they made fit together plus some filler. The reason to buy the dvd other than the filler and commentary (as you will learn by listening to the commentary) is that there are a number of jokes that will be censored in the TV version.
