Two of our newest residents (Ryan and Lorin) shared the news at the Annual Meeting that Empire Disposal offers recycling along with the normal weekly trash pickup for a small additional fee. They brought a flyer with information which is posted below.

Update from Burning Daylight Vineyards (Dave and Missy Gudal):

It’s hard to believe another harvest season is here! The vines broke bud a little early this spring and grew like crazy with all the spring rains, we’ve certainly had our hands full keeping up with them. Fortunately the rains finally quit so we are able to control the water which means that the vines will spend energy on ripening their fruit and not on excessive new growth.

If you helped us pick the Cabernet Franc in 2014 you quite literally picked a winner – we are thrilled to report that in March it won a gold medal at the Texsom International Wine Awards in Dallas (formerly the Dallas Morning News competition) and in June it won a bronze medal at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition! Unfortunately it has sold out at Lost Oak Winery in Burleson, but if you are going to Fredericksburg they reportedly have it at 4.0 Cellars (see their website at fourpointwine.com). The 2015 Cabernet Franc has just been released for sale at Lost Oak Winery in Burleson (or at lostoakwinery.com) – we haven’t had a chance to get our hands on any yet :0 They also have our 2015 Sauvignon Blanc and Quartet – a fruitier white wine blend which has our Malvasia Bianca and Vermentino grapes in it – very similar to the Quintet from 2014.
