Good Morning:

To start with, happy 35th birthday to Doug, our oldest son living in Texas, it was yesterday.

Second, Happy Father's Day this Sunday. I googled the origins and found this.

"Washington State celebrated the nation's first statewide Father's Day on July 19, 1910. Slowly, the holiday spread. In 1916, President Wilson honored the day by using telegraph signals to unfurl a flag in Spokane when he pressed a button in Washington, D.C. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge urged state governments to observe

Father's Day. "

My opinion: I know that mothers are important in the family unit, the sad thing is that fathers also important but too often absent or non-nurturing in the family unit. I think that a mom's perspective and a dad's perspective being different by nature of our genders together can give children an overall better balance in life.

Given this, please visit us this Sunday, Father's Day. All our tours are Free this day for everyone as a thank you to our fathers.

than can climb up high as it grows. Much of the grapes are also now in bloom. They have flowers, but not showy colors. Because the grapes are self pollinating, I believe this is why over the centuries they've not developed colorful flowers.
