Monday of PantheaCon
Feb. 19th, 2008 04:17 pmMonday morning I went to Gus's Beginning to Intermediate Energy Healing talk which was very good. I hardly got a chance to visit with Gus all weekend and I would very much like to have. Then I went up and found out that we had managed to get a 2pm check out. Whew! So I went off to Rayna's Melissa Ritual of Honeybees. Unfortunately, I then realized I had never picked up my auction items and I wasn't sure when the office closed. So I sneaked out halfway through and went and got those. And then took a quick spin around the dealer's room to buy Ruth Barrett's new album. I had run into her at breakfast and she said her lastest is her best ever. Amazingly, I never really did the dealer's room this year. I think my subconscious thinks NZ ate all my money (and it is probably right).
After Rayna finished her workshop we took off to show Mic some redwoods and wineries since it is his first visit to California. We stopped at Falafel's Drive-in for food first - another California thing, I think (all kinds of drive-ins). We went to Picchetti, Cooper-Garrod and Savannah-Chanelle. The latter was a lovely surprise, it is where the old Congress Springs Winery used to be and they are making lovely wines. Congress Springs used to be one of our favorites to carry visitors off to and I think Savannah-Chanelle is a worthy successor. And they had great mustards as well as nice wines. I need to cook something with the curry mustard as a glaze. May the Tuesday dinner crew will get lucky next week. *grin*
We joined Russell and went to E&O Trading Company for dinner. Last year we had taken Rayna there. It had been closer to Chinese New Year last year so there were special menu items. We did just fine with the normal menu though. I do like that place! Mangopolitans for me.
Tuesday morning I took M&R to the airport and then went to my eye doc appt and by the pharmacy to pick up some meds. Then I pretty much slept the afternoon away.
