Miss KJ Brussow and I headed down to the glorious red rock of southern Utah to help out the awesome Bagley family with planting their very own desert rocks test vineyard to see how the grapes take to the gorgeous soils of Torrey. With a backdrop like this, machines to help do some of the dirty work, and smiling caring faces tending to the vines; I can’t see how the little grape vines won’t enjoy their new growth at Cougar Ridge Lodge! Thank you Ali, for letting us come down and taking such great care of us. It was so good to see some of the family again and wonderful to meet / see old acquaintances! Good times! Huge hugs. Thanks again to you and your parents!
