With an impending move from long-time home in the city the author concerned herself with finding something for her husband, long time college baseball coach, Gary, to do in the more rural community of Bear Valley Springs. At random, she selected a book on wine-making. Ten years later, she is certain that the monster she created with that book was well worth it, because both the Adamses are now fully engaged in the full production of Syrah and Malbec wines, organically grown and estate produced - that is, growing, harvesting, processing and bottling it themselves! The journey is fascinating, ever-changing, and in the end, a journey of love. Four otherwise ordinary days in early autumn become extraordinary, as a growing band of friends and family come to share in the work and the satisfaction of the journey from vines to wines. Both the author and her husband, retired UCLA head baseball coach, Gary Adams, are involved in the full process, and have added many more vines, including Malbec, vineyard. In addition, they still raise and train Arabians for the sport of endurance, and the horses graze side by side with the vines. The idyllic valley plays host to the yearly pruning, watering, wine racking - but especially those Four Ordinary Days that turn out to be not so ordinary after all. The humor, the errors and the entire journey is exposed here for the reader to see and enjoy!
