I was hoping to see owner Tom Burgiss who welcomed us so warmly for both our BRR wine tastings. Unfortunately, Tom suffered a mild stroke a week or so ago and then took a tumble. No broken bones, but lots of cuts and bruises. I sent best wishes to him from all the Blue Ridgers!
I thought that all you Blue Ridgers from The Holler in 2012 and 2014 might like to see the new and improved Thistle Meadow Winery. Rob, Trisha, and I drove over to Laurel Springs after leaving Holy Trinity Church last Friday. I was hoping to see owner Tom Burgiss who welcomed us so warmly for both our BRR wine tastings. Unfortunately, Tom suffered a mild stroke a week or so ago and then took a tumble. No broken bones, but lots of cuts and bruises. I sent best wishes to him from all the Blue Ridgers! The first thing I noticed when walking up the steps, was a new and improved porch with new railings and bigger seating area. Sweet! At our 2012 wine tasting, we had 25 folks sitting out there enjoying ourselves and the wine. The minute I stepped inside, I saw major changes in there as well. All three of us tasted some new varieties before making our choices. In the end, it was four bottles for me and four for R & T. After getting secured in the Thistle Meadow carrying bag, we picked up our stickers and were ready to head back to The Holler.

This looks really nice. Is it close to where we will be at the 2016 BRR?
