We stopped at the Marie Car'rie Winery to finish our tasteing and had the same person pouring as at the VR La Ceraza winery. The white wines were very good and I bought three bottles. We added three glasses to our wine glass collection. We crossed the mountains on Ortega Highway SR79 twice today to visit my cousins in Mission Viejo. This was the first time I have ever seen a curve warning sign that was a complete circle. Kathryn took a picture of the sign. My cousin Kathleen, who is the same age as me and we have been close since we were about 3 years old and I was living in San Diego. Cathy, Kathryn, Kathleen (my cousin) Steven her son and Leland her husband and I had a good time catching up since we saw them last summer in Minnesota. Kathleen prepared a delicious meal and we brought along a bottle of wine from Pointe of View Winery in Minot (North Dakota's first winery). Kathryn and Steven hadn't seen each other since their visit to Buxton about 15 years ago. We hope they come to the Hilley family reunion in August. On the way home we were slowed down by an accident on I15 between Lake Elsinore and Murietta. We stopped in Temecula at In-N-Out Burger so Kathryn could experience another fast food establishment. She's hoping she can still get to Fat Burger. We saw one in Escondido, but went to Jack in the Box.
