Follow the author as he makes a life-changing decision that will determine his future for the next fifty years. Starting in the corporate world, he then ventured into his own plastics business. After twenty years, he finally "retired," only to devote every spare moment to establishing two vineyards, a winery, and a small-scale farm raising Red Angus cattle. Defying the odds in this consumer-driven business, he has managed to zig, then zag, his way through a myriad of challenges-some forced upon him, while others he'll forthrightly admit were his own doing-as he tries to find the right formula for the business. Not without his fair share of reflective thinking, he shares his stories and imparts a bit of the wisdom he has gathered along the way. And let us not forget that at the end of nearly every day, he can raise his glass and make a toast.
