It was a brutal year, losing my mother, my dog, my vineyard and my wife but, Nanette's support brought me through it all and made for many joyful days.
The vineyard sold on March 2 for $3.0M, barely half what we invested in it, however, it was a great 18 year grape/wine adventure with a 5 year home development project in the middle which left behind the legacy of a nice green home in the hills above Napa.
There was one major highlight this year which was that I was able to use my half of the proceeds of the Napa property sale to buy Cindy out of the family home in Palo Alto. I took possession on April 20 shortly after my Mother's funeral. We did 3 remodels to the house over the years so its pretty much exactly what I like. It has great bones.
Nanettte and I.
