Sake Tasting in Folsom's Gekkeikan Sake Inc.

On this very rainy day, headed to Gekkeihan Sake brewing facility in Folsom(http://www.gekkeikan-sake.com/home.cfm). Went on a self guided tour down the long hallway where one can see fast moving bottles getting filled with sake.


Then it was on to the tasting room and sampled some of the varieties of sake Gekkeikan produces. Very good stuff. Of course purchased a bottle of the Black and Gold which is really delicious. Good find in my backyard of Folsom.

On Saturday 19 Feb 11, went to 1st SeraFina Cellars La Famiglia Wine Club Open House held at Serafine Vineyard in Amador Valley. The small family vineyard released a couple of thier new wines to the members and guests. There was lots of good food and of course great wine from Serafina. The brink oven pizza was just wonderful. Had a good time as always.

Lions Club Student Speech Contest 17 Feb 11

  This regular meeting of the Folsom City Host Lions Club, involved the annual speech contest. This year we only had one student contestant. Some of the member said because the topic was too political, complicated for the students.
  I was one of the time keepers making sure the students' speech was within the allowable time which is more then 5 minutes and less then 10 minutes.
  There were several judges not associated with the Lions club including member of the community.
It was pretty good time and next level of the Speech Contest will be on 3 Mar at the same Lions Club.
