Wine

[Sagebrush Reconnoiterer]

I'm surprised not to find a wine discussion. I'm not talking being a wine connoisseur, just what you bring along in your camper?

Me? I always carried a small jug of Carlo Rossi Paisano. Heavy glass bottle, nearly indestructible on the trail. Red, semi dry. Otherwise, wine confuses me. So I stick to what I know.

No alcohol on any of our trips. Remember, we're the pair that's not any fun.

We enjoy wine in the evening and a beer after an intense hot hike. The trick for us is to know where to restock. I can vouch for the liquor store in Moab, grocery stores in Henderson, Page and Cortez. No problem in Missoula, Spokane, Boise, Phoenix and Tucson. Ely and Winnemucca are so-so. As is Pahrump.

Don't know yet about Reno/Carson City or Fallon.

I avoid the Brigham City to Provo mega-city corridor, so I don't know about that either.

In Nevada, you can restock in any grocery store.

I generally don't carry beer on the trail, it tends to pressurize as does any other carbonated drink. I'd rather drink it, not wear it.

Oh, I forgot. Julie's brand of wine is Scrabble ...

For the record, coffee is the black nectar of the gods, and further proof they love us.

Don't buy anything at the Chevron at the turnoff to Goffs. Most expensive beer and wine I've seen anywhere. Fuel was outrageous too.
