{Date Night} May

Here I am middle of June and just realized I never shared with y'all our May date from our Date Basket!

As you know, David and I have enjoyed visiting a few of the wineries on the Piney Woods Wine Trail. Every year in Mount Vernon, Texas, a wine festival is held around the town square where each winery sets up a booth and you can sample all the wines in one place. I thought this would be a great chance to try out all of the wineries on the trail and decide if they were worth a longer road trip to visit their vineyards.

In his envelope (which I forgot to take a picture of) I included the info sheet describing the date, maps on how to get to the downtown square and information on a few of the wineries I wanted to try.

15 wineries set up inside the square and about 20 vendors selling everything from pepper grills to carved wooden wine stops set up around the edge. We had a good time and tasted a lot of wine- most of which we didn't care for. We soon figured out the best winery is the one that's closest to us and we have visited a few times! So overall, this trip saved us some gas money and a few weekends!!

Be sure to check out our other dates- we have our June date coming up this weekend!
