Friday night's opening was wonderful! Thank you to everyone that showed up- we had over a 100 people and it was such a pleasure! Thank you to Trader Joe's for helping out with the cheese and crackers and having Amy come to explain the wines that Heida and I had picked out for the show.  Here are some photos from the night before the crowd and a couple during.. thanks to Melanie Ferguson for capturing the evening. Thank you one and all- it was a magical night!  Peace Out- Nic
