I received a job offer for a maintenance manager position in Portales, NM. Eastern part of the state, just across from Texas border. Great climate, high plateau, 355 days of sunshine, great offer, so I celebated with:
Fuentes , Reserva XtraViejo, aged 2 years in my humidor. Perfect smoke, great flavor, lots of smoke, even burn.
Beaulieu Vineyards, 1999 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, that had been in my wine cellar for 4 years. Decanted the wine and it was excellent.
Grilled salmon, fresco spices on a focacia roll.
Great evening on the deck enjoying the first day of fall in Michigan while I contemplated moving to NM.
