Our friend, Kelly, chartered a bus for her birthday and took a group of us on a wine tasting tour of the the hill country outside of Austin.

This is a crappy picture but these are the grape vines. (below)

Since the bus was chartered we were all free to enjoy a cocktail if we so desired.
For lunch we went to Luckenbach, TX. I had never heard of it but apparantely it is famous for big stars doing outdoor performances. People like Willie Nelson frequently perform at Luckenbach. Quite frankly it was a little "po-dunk" place with some picnic tables and food vendors. It must be an entirely different experience when there is a live performance.
