Our friends Matt & Christine have a fun sports car too. They don't just have one - they actually have two! We went on a Corvette-Lotus double date earlier this year and had so much fun we wanted to do it again with their other car - the Honda S2000. Matt really enjoyed a drive through the hills to Livermore so we decided to take that route. It was a beautiful day but it was hot! And we weren't getting much wind because it was a windy road and I had to take the curves slow - so we were hot!!!! We arrived at Lick Observatory and the view was gorgeous! It was crazy looking down the hillside and seeing the winding road that we had just driven up! After Lick Observatory - my wife would say, "The descent into hell began!" She was hot & car sick. But sometimes you have to go through hell to get to heaven. Because after the drive we arrived at Concannon Vineyard, a winery in Livermore. And she loves her wineries so she was in heaven! We had a nice little picnic and enjoyed some viognier and muscato wine. As well as some much appreciated shade!! Then we finished the evening off with a fun new brewery before jetting back home. All in all - it was a fun day with some good friends.

Thanks Matt - Yes - we'll have to try out the new backroads - as long as it's not a super hot day and there is a lot of beautiful-ness involved!!! And maybe a winery :)
