Theo with friends Dean, Satin, Terrie, and Joe at the picnic
Today Theo and I spent the afternoon at the third-annual Dobbes Family Estate picnic held at their Larkins Estate Vineyard. I’ve been to two of the three vineyard picnics and the weather at both were hot. Not sure what the temperature was today but I know I shed a lot of sweat. These events are always fun in that we get to eat some good food (the sandwiches, although simple in appearance were absolutely amazing), spend time with good friends, and chat with Joe Dobbes and the rest of the winery staff. Below is a slideshow of photos I shot today (in spite of my camera’s dying battery). If you want to see them via Flickr click here.

Theo just had a thought for her Wiki page.

The wine must have said something Dean didn't like.
Dean had a funny thought and Satin is focused on her wine.
