[Nfbmo] QFw: [NFBAffiliatePresidents] We Need Your HelpOur UpcomingCane Event

[Eugene Coulter]

In Hermann we have Stone Hill and Hermannoff and also of course Rocheport. 
Both Stone Hill and Rocheport and Stone have won National awards for their 
wines. Before prohibition Missouri was one of the largest producers of wine 
in the nation rivaling California. I am certainly no expert but like Stone 
Hill's Blush. Stone Hill is the best known  of the dozen or more wine makers 
in Missouri. And, you thought I could only talk about Blind Pension and 
Social Security. I don't very much just read about this a while back after 
visiting Stone Hill.

>> that is native to your state  to us for use in this auction package .
>> You could bring the bottle with you for the state presidents' seminar,
>> or you can ship it to me.  We'd like to have all the wine by April 1, so
>> that we can package it up and make sure we have the description ready
>> for the evening's program.
