California dreaming.

I see from weather forecast plus numerous complaining emails from back in England that the rain has still not let up...so no real summer this year it seems. I spent yesterday in gloriously sunny Napa with vino girl and vino maker discussing the property search I'm embarked upon.I received lots of good advice (plus some good stuff here from DC..thanks) and so when I return from Utah I am going to start proper viewings instead of just roadside ogling. Viewing from a car however briefly, can though be quite rewarding..in just 10 minutes yesterday whilst driving with vinogirl I was able to dismiss 2 or 3 properties out of hand. Mrs OTW and I are busy buying books online and studying away in borders books fueled with sbux and cinnamon buns...who knew designing an outside kitchen would be such fun? Just seeing Princess OTW running around in the vines and playing with the Vinodogs has convinced me further that buying and moving here is the right decision..plus Dubya was here yesterday too!

For a guy that dosent like BBQ's i can see that compromising has helped. i can just see a big fat steak on that there grill followed by stone oven baked bread to soak up the juices. mmmmm
