 Top: Drink no wine before it's time. Resurrecting 
          dormant grape vines at the Fess Parker winery. Bottom: the last stop 
          comes at 91 miles and I had to stop as I got a call from the wife just 
          as I was riding by. A mile after this stop is the feared "wall", 
          a one mile steep climb (7%) as Foxen Canyon goes over the ridge. It 
          wasn't as difficult as I remembered and had no problems climbing this 
          hill. I thought some of the others we had ridden over where more difficult.
