<strong>The Wine and Dine Tour 2011</strong> ends  here.  :-(

&nbsp;

Sis boarded a plane and headed on back to H-Town.

&nbsp;

I am always sad when family leaves.  Luckily, this time around I had been invited out by a Gentleman Caller for a lovely diversion.  A Wine and Dine Tour 2011 After Party, if you will.

I would say that Wine and Dine 2011 really stops here, but...

&nbsp;

Something tells me I will be eating my way through Portland this weekend for <strong><a href="http://worlddominationsummit.com">The World Domination Summit</a></strong>.

&nbsp;

Bring on the coffee and the VooDoo Donuts!  :-D
