As the mad fury of crush comes to an end (tomorrow’s our last day crushing Red Mountain Malbec) there’s only one song that concisely sums up my desire to be doing anything other than the triple rinse (aka sanitizing and cleaning).
I WANT TO RIDE MY BICYCLE!
Queen’s emphatic, staccato lyrics and back-and-forth danceable rhythms are a perfect complement to cleaning up the winery after a long weekend of soap suds, sticky juice, and flying grape skins hitting the wall.
But the real song running through my head is The Rogers Sisters’ Song For Freddie.
This youtube.com version is live but still just as fun! The Rogers Sisters were blasting the poor neighbors out of their home as I took a four minute break to ride the closest thing our winery has to a bicycle: my yellow pallet jack!
She wants to ride her bicycle, she want to ride her bike,

It’s a beautiful day in Manson, WA. Wish you were here!

Luckily we’re on the flats and not at the top of a mountain or you would have been gone for good.
Hats off to Angela for my surprise delivery of wine today. I was the only one walking out of work with delicious alcoholic beverages. Take that, other people!
Glad we can help make your coworkers jealous.
Angela, you are awesome, by the way.
