SLOing it Down...

Apologies to our swarm of followers who have been on the edge of thier seats waiting for the next post. We have been very busy in San Luis Obispo. We have been gifted with the most beautiful weather since our arrival. 

On the first day we went hiking up Bishop's Peak. A mammoth up hill hike involving some rock climbing.. Okay so it wasn't that advanced but it proved to be a little bit of a challenge. 

The view was beyond amazing we could see the whole town, an ant's village below us. It was very rewarding getting to the top. 

Unfortunately Jess did not have appropriate footwear to be rock climbing up a mountain. So around the time we arrived at the top she had a few blisters forming. Eventually she ditched the shoes and continued barefoot to the bottom! 

That evening we attended girls night out at a local winery. It was very entertaining. We indulged in tasty wine and the ladies swapped stories. 

After quick outfit change due to the temperature drop, we headed to the local farmer's market with Chase and Yulia. It was bustling with activity. We had a few drinks at the local pub then home to sleep it off.

Then next morning we hit up Firestone for a late brunch. The food was insane. Steak salad and a tri tip sando to split between us. On our agenda that afternoon was wine tasting in paso Robles. First stop was Daou, a beautiful winery on top of a hill. We sipped on a glass of wine while we enjoyed the rolling hills. Next up Le Cuvier, a much smaller winery, and we opted for a tasting and pairing session. It was fantastic and ultimately they won Mark and Diane over and they became members.

The sun was beaming the wine was flowing. Our tummies were rumbling.

The four of us went out for dinner to the Pony Club. A fancy wine bar with great ambiance and live music. The conversation was golden, we had such a nice evening with the parents. 

Strolling around Paso we stumbled across this mini house. A prop for when Santa makes his yearly visits.

We also got frisky with some display of vegetables... may have been something in the wine. 

Mr. Fleming dropped us in downtown SLO via their way home and we continued the party at a few local bars.  The camera was forgotten at this point along with any thoughts of an early night...
