Happy Father’s Day Weekend, y’all
Rick Browne, local resident, renowned food writer and recipient of an honorary Ph.B (Doctor of Barbecue Philosophy) from the Kansas City Barbecue Society will be manning the grill at Confluence Vineyards’ Fathers Day event Fri, June 19th beginning at 6 pm.
I’m at Celebrate Walla Walla all weekend but there’s some not-to-be-missed winery stops for Father’s Day Weekend I want to shared. Other wineries may be having specials, as well. If you’re out touring the wonderful Clark County Wine Country, be sure to ask.
Also, be sure to check out the Sunday, June 21 edition of The Columbian newspaper for a wrap-up of Clark County Wine Country summer concerts.

I am a Clark County native. I am Level 2 WSET (wine and spirit education trust)-certified and enjoy pairing wine with my passion for travel and fondness of food. My most prized possessions are the memories of places I've been with my husband, the chance encounters we've been blessed to have along the way and my carry-on bag. I can often be seen around town and in tasting rooms with our two beautiful, double-Merle Australian shepherds, Challenge and Baby Girl.
