Saturday night found us at the Balistreri Vineyards for the KUVO Live at the Vineyards event. Our friends Debbie and Ken joined us to enjoy wine, jazz and food....lots of food! There were 30 restaurants there serving a sample of their finest gourmet dishes - an upscale version of Costco snack ladies. We did our best to try them all but started to feel some pain near the finish! Along our journey were a collection of Balistreri wine and plenty of sangria. The event was delayed a tiny bit at the beginning due to a short but intense storm that descended upon us just as we were getting started on our food fest. Table cloths and umbrellas flew, rain poured down and vendors scrambled to protect their goodies. Fortunately, the storm passed as quickly as it came, everything was righted and the festivities resumed.
The H2 Big Band entertained us until the headliner, Dianne Reeves took the stage. What a voice! Unfortunately, she didn't go on until 10pm which doesn't sound too late unless you have been eating and imbibing since 6pm (see above) so we didn't see her whole show. Our coach awaited to take us home, driven by my angelic son who agreed to be our chauffeur for the night. A great night with all my favorite things and people!
