Fun day in Missouri!

It's hard to believe our time here is running out!  We've been trying to pack activities in in the past couple weeks, that we probably should have been doing the whole time we've been here.  Like going to see the state capitol, visiting the tourist trap Branson, and today, going to a wine festival.  Central Missouri has more vineyards and winery's that you'd think and today we went to Sip 'n Savor in St James to taste some of the local wines.  We know a local radio personality and he hooked us up with a couple of free tickets, so we figured why not, and I'm really glad we went.  We had a great time and I FINALLY found a wine that I REALLY like!  Too bad they  were gone for the day by the time we went back to buy a case bottle and there aren't any retailers around here, but we'll stop in STL on our way out and pick some up!
