A Patriotic Week

It is actually kinda nice that the 4th fell on Wednesday. Half our visitors started the celebration last Saturday through the 4th and half from the 4th onward through the weekend.  We have enough to celebrate for a month of Sundays so to fit in the 4th over the course of 9 days isn't such a bad thing. Just one long weekend doesn't seem enough.

One of our customers came in just yesterday and asked for a "patriotic wine". We were stumped to be honest. So we searched the shelves and found nothing. Nada. Hundreds of labels examined without a patriotic twist.  We did find a vodka bottle decorated in a flag motif but that didn't count (it did but it didn't).

We did a little thinking on this as our tasting is Saturday and we wanted to "be patriotic" for it but are coming up short in the idea department. Mentioning this to several in the shop, we were sent a YouTube link later in the day. We guess it is the equal to something patriotic although it is a stretch at best.
