Today 5 of us from work went to Peterson, IA for their annual "Hiney winery festival." Different wineries from across IA gathered for a day of wine tasting. Vendors were also there with hemp brownies(they are delicious, organic and very high in omega 3s.), smoked meat, and homemade breads. I brought home for Tyler an apple from the local orchard that was dipped in homemade caramel. I also bought a bottle of wine to share with the ladies of my family;)After wards, we went to the Heritage Preservation Center. O'Brien County collects all their road kill and dumps it in a field at once. All the sudden the birds start flocking in. It is unbelievable to watch. They also held a bison burger picnic. Also in town was the A.R.T.(Artisan Road Trip) where we went to people's houses and looked at their art for sale. It was a fantastic afternoon with my friends. Thanks Steve for spending the day with Tyler.
