St. Michaels and Oxford Weekend In Photos

This past weekend, the Laurs were invited to spend the weekend with Bobbie's cousins, Gwenny and Dudley, in St. Michaels. Now when we say "invited," it's more like we took them up on their very kind invitation to "visit any time." We chose this specific weekend because we planned on attending the St. Micheals Winefest as we did two years ago, only to see on the way down that it was sold-out (and turns out was a little pricey for our tastes anyway).  Gwenny generously offered to watch Charlie while we enjoyed the town and par-took in our own Not-Buying-Wine-Fest-Tickets Bar Crawl!

We checked out boats.


Had some Orange Crushes

Killed St. Michaels Music Trivia

And we met the Famous RUSTY! Rusty is the creator of the Rusty Rocket, a shot of the bar's most hoppy beer with a splash of the hottest hot sauce you can find. The guy is a legend.

And we even found our own wine to taste

After our adventures, we headed back and got a great dinner thanks, again, to Gwenny and Dudley. We put in a good night's rest because day two would be filled with even more fun.

And we finished out the day exploring Oxford via foot and stroller



All in all it was a fantastic few days, and again we we left saying the following:
"why don't we come here more often"
"what jobs to do these people have that allow them to live here just on the weekends"
and of course,
"we've got a pretty sweet life"
