OMG. What am I doing? I am driving across three states to take part in a thrilling, exciting adventure in Wine. I have to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming. For the next 6 weeks, I will be working as an apprentice/cellar rat to Winemaker K at CW in Prosser. In exchange for doing the grunt work/cleaning in the winery, I will gain invaluable knowledge working alongside a winemaker I hold in high regard. How does that saying go..."if you do something you love, work doesn't feel like work..." Well, ask me at the end of the week. I will be making daily blog entries on my experience, feelings and observations about my apprenticeship. I'm approaching this from a complete novice standpoint and I hope that the one person out there that is reading this blog (hi Mom!) will live vicariously through me and perhaps inspire you to do something fun, a little risky and fulfill your dreams. Speaking of dreams, I need to get some sleep so I can start out early tomorrow.

Cheers,
CellarGirl
