Good news!!

Three days ago, in the midst of our travels, Boyfriend Matt - or should I say Fiancee Matt - proposed! He asked me to marry him on the top of Multnomah Falls in Oregon, and I accepted immediately. Woohoo!!

We've spent the last few days of our trip celebrating and seeing new places. On the evening of the proposal, we went to dinner with my little sister and her roommate and saw a little of her new town. (We also hit up the bookstore, buying wedding books and magazines galore!) Two days ago, we made the long drive from Portland to Napa, stopping only for fast food and stretching breaks. Yesterday, we met up with Burns and Nicole in Napa and spent the day at wineries: Joseph Phelps, Rutherford Hill, Frog's Leap, Slaughterhouse Cellars and Reynolds. The best of these were the Rutherford wines - if you can find them where you are, we recommend the merlot, the cabernet sauvignon, the red blend and even the port.

So that's the update for now, from the free computer at our hotel in Vallejo. More details to come!
