Pete and Jean invited us to join them to visit a couple more sights in the area. The first was the Silvara Vineyards... This was a gorgeous place located on a hillside surrounded by pear orchards and the Cascade Mountains. There was a lodge style tasting room, with live band playing, overlooking the Upper Wenatchee River Valley. It is said that the wines are as wonderful as the view. here are a few photos to enjoy:
