    That’s a teaser. The best photos are below.

    Five more days gone next week and then I will be home for a long while.

    And in June, Radiohead is coming. Tickets go on sale Saturday, so I won’t sleep well Friday. I’ll be going to both San Diego shows, obviously, but it would be nice to get a ticket at the regular price.

    I have been traveling so much that I have forgotten what it is like to be home. I love this time of year, when the days start to get really warm, but there is a mist on the horizon. I can’t tell you, seriously, I can’t tell you, what it is going to be like to sleep in my own bed tonight. I had this idea on this last trip, to take a picture of every single room I sleep in when I am on the road. But then I only took one picture. I could always take it with the TV on, to be reminded of what I have watched. Last night it was A Place in the Sun and then Top Chef. I remember, because it was last night. But where was I when I did take a picture? And what the hell was I watching?

    I think it was San Luis Obispo. It’s all sort of a blur.

    Anyhow if I ever retire from the wine business I think I will set up shop as a portrait photographer. Check these out:

    Have you ever seen a better looking kid than my nephew Ryan? Plus he is a born actor:

    We represent, the Lollipop Kids. I will never, ever be able to look at this picture and not crack up. He is so freaking awesome, I can’t even tell you.
