crusty old cruiser

Post: # 3195Post drib »

This guy is not me, but I noticed he joined today and had nine unusual posts in varying topics. Later, I noticed that all but one disappeared - and because his post count is ten, there must be a new one. So I'm going to save what I still have.

CrustyOldCruiser replied to tennis's topic in Crystal Symphony Roll Calls

Once you've seen one winery, you've seen them all. There are only so many barrels and vats you can look at. Aside from the photo op, that's it.
