Drink Wine Day

 

Beer is made by men, wine by God.”
― Martin Luther
February 18 is Drink Wine Day. There's something about wine...maybe the idea that something fresh and sweet and simple as grapes growing on a vine can transform over time into something so much more. Much like a person's soul starts out sweet and simple and fresh but the more time it has to grow in this world the deeper and sweeter and more magical it can be. But on the same note, some souls, like wine, turn out bitter and rotten and have to be dumped out. 

Some ways to enjoy this drink include drinking with friends while watching a movie, watching the sun set while having a glass, drinking a glass while relaxing in the bathtub. 

Marcellars in Idaho Falls and the Lounge at Madison Crossing in West Yellowstone are both good places to enjoy a drink now and then. They also do wine tastings from time to time as well. Marcellars hosts a wine tasting every Thursday from 5-7pm. 

Best places to buy a large selection of wines outside of Marcellars of course, include Broulims, Costco and Fred Meyer in Idaho Falls.

  Island Park News may report the news from a small town in Idaho, but even though only 286 people call Island Park home year-round, each year the "small" town, which spans 33 miles, sees tens of thousands of tourists visit or drive through. That's a lot of people who recreate and vacation in an area. Ann Marie Anthony, publisher and editor for the Island Park News since 2013, covers all entertainment and news and new businesses that happen in Island Park.  "I try to keep my finger on all issues effecting the folks that live here and meeting all those folks," Anthony said in an email.  A typical day for Anthony involves reading through hundreds of emails and making decisions on what to include in the weekly paper.

She works daily and attends multiple events and places meeting lots of people and keeping up to date with eve
