Over 20 years ago, dead broke, divorced, and living in rent-controlled Santa Monica, CA I started making pilgrimages to the Santa Ynez Valley, two hours north of Los Angeles. Initially, I drove up, always mid-week, to play golf. By myself. It was affordable, the courses were beautiful and uncrowded. Soon, I started staying overnight so I could get in more rounds of golf until I discovered

“You're such a cheater. The best wood in your golf bag is your pencil!”
― Rex Pickett, Sideways

“Pinot Noir country. My grape. The one varietal that truly enchants me, both stills and steals my heart with its elusive loveliness and false promises of transcendence. I loved her, and I would continue to follow her siren call until my wallet--or liver, whichever came first--gave out.”
― Rex Pickett, Sideways

“I can't kill myself, I thought. I'm too insignificant. I'm nothing. I'm a thumbprint on the first-floor window of a skyscraper, a smudge of excrement on a tissue surging out to sea along with millions of tons of raw sewage, a squirrel eating a nut as a car bore down on him.”
― Rex Pickett, Sideways
