Roanoke

This is the view looking down at Roanoke from the Valhalla winery. A few weekends ago we visited our friends Lee and Jon who live in Roanoke. We hit the winery for a few hours that Saturday. It was a small winery, but very good. We did a small wine tasting, then split a bottle and cille dout, enjoying the view.
We had a really good visit. We took Ned with us, and he spent the entire time wrestling with their three dogs. They have Guiness -a black lab - the Alpha dog who didn't really play, just air-humped Ned now and then to put him in his place; Brody - a golden lab, who didn't really like Ned until the last day, and Sampson, the Dalmation who loved Ned. Those two would not rest, they wrestled or raced or played tug of war without stopping. Ned was soaking wet the entire time from the bigger dogs putting their mouths around him. Little Ned has a lot of spunk which I love - he just kept dishing it out to the big dogs.
