Holy Cow! This week has been WILD and WILDLY unique.
We spent days getting ready for the Big Freeze, then Freezing, then cleaning up from the Big Freeze and now we must prepare for the Great Flood! Although it is as yet unannounced, I am sure it is only a matter of time!!!! What was defined as ‘scattered showers’ became two days and nights of heavy, heavy rain! And as daunting as it sounds I am sure that centuries from now, when our descendents are reading about our planets’ ever evolving history, they will discover that a major weather shift began near the beginning of the 21st century!!!! And speaking of weather shifts, remember that the Mississippi River did not exist until after the Ice Age!!! And it is theorized that the Clovis Point in Lenna’s pendant found its way to Yadkin County BEFORE the Mississippi River was born from melting ice!!!
Calendar information for your consideration includes the Annual Yadkin County Winter Reds for the last weekend in January and February. As you will recall half of the Yadkin County wineries welcome you in January and the other half in February. And this year, Friday Night Wine Dinners at Sanders Ridge have been added. Winston-Salem Chef Christian Froelich will prepare a six course dinner showcasing one wine from each of the six wineries. Tickets are $65.00 per person and are by reservation only. Tickets for both the Wine Dinner and the Winter Reds Tour are available from the Yadkin County Chamber of Commerce office or online at http://www.visityadkin.com. FYI: RagApple Lassie will be a part of the February weekend events.
And please don’t forget to share your opinion with us. Go to RagApple Lassie’s Facebook page, click on the ‘poll’ button and give us your opinion on just two questions!.

Rainbows and joy!
Lenna and Frank
