According to Kevin McCallum of the Press Democrat, "Sonoma County's $2 billion wine industry is in a broad recovery from the lean years of 2001-2004..." This is good news and bad news.
We who live in wine country would like to see the wine industry grow more slowly and sustainably, but it sure helps the local economy. But that's a minor thought for today.
Today, my thoughts go out to the survivors of 9/11 and their fragmented families.
I've heard folks referring to 9/11 as a "tragedy." It was that and more. We must never forget that on that day in 2001, the U.S. was attacked. This made it not so much a tragedy, which it was, but an act of war on our own soil. Looked at that way, I think we need to stop being so politically correct (which the enemy, rightly, regards as weakness, and remember we are, and will be for generations to come, at war, with terrorists who have no regard for human life, least of all their own.
Plant your victory gardens and keep the faith.
