A Mormon, A Knife, & A Bottle of Champagne.

I just got back from a weekend in Napa Valley, California at the Mighty Summit 2010 and I’m pooped.  ThrashedExhausted.  But uplifted and filled to the brim with happy in the best way.  And while I leave you with some images and text straight from an email from Laura Mayes, I’ll be composing a proper post.  Meanwhile, enjoy these.

    When i got home from my mission, I worked as a server for a “fancy” restaurant, selling, serving, and promoting wine bottles. I was definitely a fish out of water. You seem to look a little more comfortable with all the proper tools. :)

      I was instructed by people much smarter than me when it comes to alcohol.
