Visiting wineries has become a bit of a hobby of yours, and a perfect excuse to load up your Piper Malibu Mirage to make weekend getaways in the sometimes-remote places wineries seem to proliferate. You’ve exhausted most of what Northern California has to offer, so you’re now exploring further down the coast.

You skipped out of work a little early on Friday to fly to San Luis Obispo (KSBP) for the weekend, arriving in time to start sampling some of the area’s wines with dinner. The locals call it SLO town, but your weekend plans were anything but slow. Aviation was far from the forefront of your mind as you kept to a busy schedule of winery visits and more fine dining. Since winery visits and flying aren’t the best pairing, you planned an early departure Monday morning to head home and allow you to be back at work just a bit before lunch time. If you bring your boss a nice bottle of wine, he’s usually cool with that.
