Anyone up for a "last hurrah"?
How about a last fling of the fall to Stonington Vineyards on Saturday, October 19th or Sunday, October 20th? They're having a Harvest Wine & Food Celebration.
Here's an excerpt:
==================
Harvest Celebration & Case Sale with Food, Wine and Live Music!
Join us for a fun filled weekend. 84 High Street and Bank Street Lobster House will have lunches available for your picnicking needs! New England Food Vendors offering samples and sales of their wares. Wine tasting all day and cellar tours at 12, 2, & 4. This is always a great time!
==================
We could meet somewhere central and drive as a group to Stonington. How about this route: I84 Exit 69 To Stonington Vineyards?? It's about 55 miles and should take about an hour and a half.
Any other ideas??

The hours are 11am-5pm. We could meet at 10:30am and get there around noon. Jeff, maybe you could meet us somewhere on-route or at the winery. Is there a better meeting place?? I just picked that location randomly as it was between Boston and Stonington.
Max: You've got more info than I, as I don't know the area all that well. Where's the cider mill - in Stonington?? As for getting drunk, I'd prefer to do that after I drive! I'd hate to dent the baby before she goes into hibernation
