On the Friday after Thanksgiving, the small town of Yountville in the Napa Valley holds its annual Festival of the Lights. The main street of town is closed to cars, and local wineries and restaurants set up tasting stations.

For the second year, fodorites have gathered to partake of the delicious food and wine and enjoy each others company. This year, through the grace of Kal's organizational talents, we had a fantastic dinner for 24 of us at the Wine Garden. The food was delicious and the service gracious and friendly.

Special thanks to Budman for the wine he sent, to EasyTraveler for the wine she brought, and to LoveItaly for the limoncello she sent. And most of all, thanks to Kal for his time and energy to put this all together.

Join us next year!
