Calistoga Day, April 18

  Another wonderful day in Calistoga! Sunny and warm - it got to around 85 degrees.
  We started with a visit to the Vincent Arroyo Winery where we got some olive oil and balsamic vinegar plus some port wine. We had a nice chat with the tasting room guy, Jeff, who used to visit Nantucket.

   Then we went into St. Helena and visited the Helena Olive Oil Company still run by an Italian family, and got some olive oil made with local olives.
   We talked ourselves into going back to Vincent Arroyo and got some more oil and vinegar!
   We hung around the pool and hot tub during the middle of the day and then went back to Cindy's Backstreet Kitchen for a 4 p.m. dinner where we had the dining room to ourselves. Both of us had the ahi tuna salad - yummy! (Barbara had had it the night before.)

     After that we went back for some more hard work in the hot tub.
