**Congratulations Carol Weatherly for winning the four passes to Sunday’s music. Just email or call me with the four names of the people coming, and I’ll add them to the pass list. Thanks for playing!
Oh boy, we’re gonna have fun this weekend! Come on out and join us – I guarentee great wine, neat people, and fabulous music each afternoon. No reservations needed and picnic baskets are welcome (but our license does not allow for any other alcohol other than PBV wine to be consumed on the property).
Start out on Saturday and unwind to the tropical breezy music of Elliott Ranney from 1-4pm in our winegarden.
Then on Sunday, come out from 2-5 to check out Gumbohead:
These guys have the coolest Cajun & Blues in St. Louis, and we get to kick up our heels all afternoon with them! There is a $5/person cover charge from 2-5pm on Sunday.
Of course we don’t want the fun to end, so Labor Day Monday we’ll be open from 10-5pm. Before you head home, come check out:
Mark Gordon from 1-4pm! He LOVES requests, and HATES having to make decisions about what to play; so be sure to ask for your favorite blues, pop, folk or any other tune you can think of!
Finally, in honor of Labor Day Weekend, I’m holding another little contest. Leave a comment on this post by Friday August 29, 2008 at 3pm (central time) telling me what your favorite Labor Day Weekend memory is. I’ll use the random number generator to choose a winner and if you are chosen, you’ll win four free entries to see Gumbohead here on Sunday afternoon. Woo Hoo! I’ll post the results at the top of this entry by 5pm on Friday.

One of my favorite memories is of our family going to the gravel bar at Onodaga State Park on the Meramec River. We had brought music to listen to, our favorite drinks and floaties to use in the cool water. We’d walk up the gravel bar and then float down to where we had our chairs in the river. So relaxing, great memories of when our 3 girls were still at home; one now in New York City, another in St. Louis and the youngest in Seattle.
My husband and I may recreate those memories this week-end, but also talked about coming to Peaceful Bend and enjoy some music and wine.
My favorite memories of Labor Day weekend is going to the annual Labor Day picnic at your Church and seeing people I haven’t seen in years. Everyone gathers around the beer tent, as all good Catholics do LOL, and listens to music and the good ladies and men of the church make wonderful fried chicken dinners. Heading there tonight to start the weekend. Small towns are awesome!!
Definitely heading to Peaceful Bend this weekend to have some wine, enjoy the weather, and listen to good music. I’ve outgrown the beer.
