Vineyard Life in Eagle, Idaho

If you are wondering about this picture, here is the whole truth. Tia Markland, editor of Eagle Magazine, called us and wanted to do a story about 3 Horse Ranch Vineyards. She also wanted to put us on the cover. After a lot of discussion, we decided to take the picture in the vineyard, at a bistro table, with Gary and I toasting each other with a glass of our 2008 Viognier.

Well, as we were waiting for our photographer, Otto Kitsinger, to get set up, Gary got up, and starting pulling smaller grape clusters off the vines near him. At this point I said, "Here is your cover, me, waiting for Gary to finish working!" Those of you who know Gary know this to be an accurate portral of us both. Tia and her crew jumped on the idea and here is the result!
