Our weekend started on Saturday with Goldwing Appreciation Day at Team Power Sports in Garner, NC. The NC Goldwing Precision Drill Team put on a nice show around 1:30PM. I had never seen them before and was very impressed. One of the riders was 18 years old. Watch the video below.

We took advantage of the 15% sale to add some Baker Wings to our ride and Dean Holton installed them for us.

Sunday we went to an art show in Graham, NC. There is an artist that makes amazing things with standard Lego Bricks. Check him out
BrickArtist.com.
All these photos are of sculptures made entirely of Lego Bricks. It was a very neat exhibit.

On the way home, Laurie noticed a sigh for
SilkHopeWinery.
We did a quick U-turn and took the side road. A couple of miles brought us to another side road that was gravel and straight up a hill. Laurie closed her eyes and I pointed Ruby up the mountain. Soon we were parked beside what looked like a government surplus metal building. We hesitantly approached the door and entered.

We were greeted with a cool interior on a humid late August day complete with cotton table cloths, music and several people enjoying a late Sunday afternoon wine tasting. It was surreal. The wine was not to our taste but Laurie bought a bottle anyway and the conversation was nice.
I do regret that since we were on two wheels we shared one tasting flight and tossed most of the wine. Alcohol and two wheels do not go together no matter how much it hurt. It was a great weekend on Ruby.
