The Grape Escape- Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad

The Grape Escape
Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad
August 17, 2012

It is difficult to describe what transpired on the wine train- partly because it is hard to find the words to adequately explain the mayhem and also because I’d had a lot wine.  What I can say is that when we boarded our coach class train car at the Boston Mills Station, people were quietly chatting amongst themselves and when we got off we were wearing fake mustaches, Mardi Gras beads and glostix.  The atmosphere inside the train car went from subdued to roaring within two glasses of wine and things only got more frantic as we worked our way through the five wine selections paired with unique food dishes prepared by a local caterer.  Liz, our main server, worked us up into a frenzy with her playful ribbing and zany attitude.  Gentlemen wearing buttoned-up collared shirts started joking about threesomes and getting flashed.  Little old ladies got a little frisky and out of hand.  I believe I laughed for about 2 straight hours.  It was wild and crazy and a total blast!
