Wineries & More

Last evening, we had dinner with Bob & JoAnn's friends who live in Alma, Arkansas.  We met at the Cracker Barrel.  It was nice meeting Janie and Donny.

After dinner, we went to a local casino.   We had fun.   Bob won a good amount and I won a little bit.

Today we drove to Altus and Wiederkehr Village to visit some wineries.  First was Post Famalie Winery in Altus.  This has been in existence since 1880 and the 5th  Post generation is running the winery now.  We took the tour and it was very interesting.  The wine tasting was good, too.

Each of these metal tanks holds 4200 gallons each.  That is a lot of wine.
