Truckee Wine - Gotta Love It!!!

I have to admit that I love Wine! My preference is White's, along the Riesling lines. But, I'm open to other options!

My first experience with "Wine", was in Junior High, when our family lived at the Presidio in San Francisco when it was still an Army Base. My Dad, was the 2nd in Command of the West Coast's, U.S. Army C.I.D. (Criminal Investigation Command).

I went to the Roosevelt Junior High School, right off the base. My two best friends and I, for some reason, decided to drink Two Bottles of Lancers Wine for lunch one day. That's right...we didn't start with Boone's Farm!

My first class after lunch that day, was Algebra. The class was a blur, while I sat at my desk and watched the room spin. Fortunately, no tests that day! Things improved through the rest of the day, and I walked home. My Dad was home when I got there which was pretty unusual. As it turns out, one of my "Partners in Wine" had felt sick and gone to the office to call her Mom. While waiting for her Mom, she literally got sick all over the Principal's office.

The Principal talked with my friend's Mom, and asked who she hung out with. My other friend and I, were thrown under the Bus! Thus, the reason that my Dad was at home early...he had received a phone call from the Principal about MY drinking at school.

My Love Affair with Wine was Launched!!
