Another Night at Ste Michelle
18-Sep-2005
Last night was another night at Ste Michelle Winery for a concert. My what a difference a month makes! Even though the sky was mostly clear and the day had a fair amount of sunshine, once the sun dropped and the dew started falling it was a bit chilly and very damp! This time I avoided the camera question and took just a couple shots.
As you can see from the first photo there was a full moon – we had one last time, too! It’s so cool to watch it come up over the Eastern horizon while enjoying the show. It was M’s turn to bring food. We started with a beautiful plate of figs and cheese. An earlier trip to the tasting room yielded a lovely Syrah to accompany our luscious snack.
For our main course there was a beautifully grilled chicken, an oh-so-comforting dish of mixed grains and a fresh-from-the-garden salad. The grains were so satisfying that I actually just wanted to dive in and curl up on a hearty bed of them. Perfect "summer’s almost over but it’s not quite full on fall" food!
As the show started we settled in with a final glass of wine and pulled our little blankets up around us to keep us warm and dry. It was a nice way to end the summer concert season.
