Wednesday, January 30, 2002 (Due Day -3)
No news (is good news?) Kristyn, Gael and I went to Calistoga to do touristy things. Since we were the only tourists in Calistoga we didn't spend much time there (apparently most shops closed on winter Wednesdays).
Since we had time on our hands (lots of time) we went to Landmark Winery
..and Ledson Winery. The latter is a castle; unbelievable indoor finish work. The wine? Not bad; another $350 day.... (Someone please help me!!!!)
...AND THEN...
On the way home, we were passing through downtown Santa Rosa when we got caught up in a police action. Plainclothes, uniforms, bicycle patrolmen, unmarked cars and EVERYONE with guns drawn. Seems three chaps in a pickup truck were the subject of a planned raid under one of the underpasses -- the one we were under. Kristyn's Suburban was the first car to arrive at the face-off; the whole thing happened right in front of us! Cool! Excitement -- but no baby....
