Day Drinking and “FROse” at Orfila Vineyards and Winery in Escondido
HAVE YOU TRIED A FRO-se? (Frozen rose) I certainly did not mean to “day drink” at 3 pm for yesterdays Day 4 expansion exercise but it was a lesson in control vs surrender… let me explain.
I had intended to go visit this unique art park and enrolled my very new friend Becca into going with me… (it was like a blind friend date haha we’d never hung out before!) it was quite the drive to the park …. And then, well, IT WAS CLOSED
No problem… I am working on my go with the flow attitude so I knew we would find something else to do… so we opened google maps and found a cool bridge and a lake to walk across. Bingo we thought! Except when we got there the lake was TOTALLY DRIED UP… we are in a drought … whoops! Next!
Should we give up?
So Becca suggested we go back to my house and create fun content but I was COMMITTED do my 30 days of doing something I do not normally do so I pulled up google maps again.
We were near a BUNCH of wineries which looked beautiful! However, we both BARELY drink and certainly not during the day.
So I surrendered.
I mean it’s about new and different experiences.
So…
We learned about wine.
We toured.
We had an amazing FROse (frozen rose) I did not even know that was a thing!
We enjoyed the beautiful real life no filter scenery.
We had a bunch of laughs.
THE LESSON?
Trying to control things NEVER works.
and yesterday was a huge reminder to me of the importance of surrender, “being” and going with the flow!
