We did not have high hopes for a good place to eat here in Willcox for Mikes birthday and Mike had decided to cook steaks so he could have his just the way he likes it.....so Thursday we did a little wine tasting here in Willcox in the afternoon on that cold, rainy day....and Janie at Carlson Winery told us about a Lawrence Dunham wine dinner at Sunglow Ranch. She called for us and they had seats available so we made a reservation! Talk about timeing!
We had to drive quite a ways but it was definitely worth it! We started out the day driving to the Amerind Museum in Dragoon which was great but they would not allow pics so I have nothing to share from there. From the museum we drove to Sunglow Ranch, a B&B located 10 miles south of Chiricahua NM, in the middle of no where. Lovely though! We made some new friends, had good food and enjoyed the Lawrence Dunham wines served:

Happy Belated Birthday Mike! What a nice day that turned out to be!
ReplyDeleteWhen you went to Amerind you probably passed the Triangle T Guest Ranch...that's where we stayed when in that area.
