This morning we got up early and headed towards a local farm to go strawberry picking. Colin had a great time and was very helpful picking the strawberries. He did not quite get the concept that we wanted the red ones, not the white/greenish ones, but he really enjoyed himself so no big deal. 
The farm also has a big play area for kids, so after our tractor ride back (which Colin was a big fan of) we went on some slides, played in a big sandbox and enjoyed a nice picnic lunch. We also went to the petting area and Colin said "hi" to all of the animals: baby chickens, miniature horses, cows, donkeys, and some goats. He even saw some ducks and was still polite and said goodbye to the one who snapped at his pant leg. 
Colin - "Cows go moo!"
Mean duckie!
Afterwards, we stopped at the next door vineyard (this is the place that gives you a free tasting if you were at the farm)...so I tasted their wine again and bought a bottle of a dessert wine. It was delicious! It had less sugar than the average dessert wine so I think that is why I liked it so much. What a day! We even got home by 2, so we still had a good chunk of the day to enjoy at home.
