Our second stop was a winery/brewery location which happen to share a parking lot with a dog boarding facility. Luckily, Cody did not see a single one of the dogs over there, so no grumpy old man barking. We parked next to a Sprinter van, so we had company at this location, though we never saw the people. It was grass again, but this time right next to a road. We can also hear traffic from the turnpike here, but it’s not bad.
After setting up, we walked down to the tasting room. There was no one in the winery, and the brewery only opened at 6pm for trivia. It’s busier in the summer, and I’m surprised they stay open year round. The wines were decent, most of them sweeter than I like. Many dessert style wines.
We made dinner and then headed to the brewery for trivia – 90’s music, right up my alley! We got there late, but the host let us join anyway for the 3rd and 4th round. There were 5 teams, including us. We ended up getting 2nd and winning a prize. So 90’s music is not a forte of local Hershians. There was a beer made with Snickers that was delicious!
The next morning I got up early enough again to see the sunrise. Although it’s right next to the interstate, it’s a beautiful view. We walked Cody around and did a quasi-workout later in the morning since our next drive was only 2.5 hours.* (Yeah, the next “2.5 hours” deserves its own post).
The building below is the brewery. I bet this is a great hangout in the summertime.
