With the kids thankfully back to school, what better way to celebrate than with a little blast from the past?

Thanks to Lucy C. for arranging this picture - which features Mr. Perrotti and Madame Thornton-Schilling from our alma mater La Jolla Country Day School.  Over 20-years ago, Mr. Perrotti was our 10th grade Chemistry teacher and Madame Thornton-Schilling was our 10th grade French teacher.  Both had a great influence on Kerith’s illustrious academic career.  I’d like to make the same claim, but my short academic career was something less than illustrious.

And for those of you who still don’t know that Kerith and I have really known each other since 10th grade, check out the In the Beginning page of our website.

Opera

 

Kerith and I were recently invited to San Diego Opera’s onstage dinner where we dined on the set of Carmen.  While there, we were delighted to share a bottle of our new Rockpile Zinfandel with Kevin Langan who shined in the bad-guy role of Zuniga.

Vance at Plymouth Rock

 

Many thanks to Brigade member Vance H. who snapped this great picture at the famous Plymouth Rock.  Having never visited myself, I was a little surprised at how small the rock looks in this picture.  Vance noted, “Bruliam:  Like Plymouth Rock, it is quality which prevails over size and lasts through the generations”.  Well said.

Many thanks to Brigade member Jackie who did the hard work of taste testing all of our 2009 pinot noirs a couple of months ago!

Many thanks to Brigade member Kristi R. who sends in this shot from the Olympic museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.  She’s reaching for the bar showing the current Olympic high jump world record of 2.45 meters (a little over 8 feet)!
