         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Sunday, March 18, 2012:  Mark and Paula were invited to the Emslie Drummond home on South Long Lake near Brainerd.  Dennis and Jody are fun people.

Paula couldn't resist tasting the wine.  

Jody is a real cook.  She ought to be, she has been involved in the restaurant business for many years.

Here she is about to put Irish soda bread into the oven.   


Invited guests included Tim and Deanne Eilers from Des Moines, Iowa.

Welcome to the Emslie Drummond's!

Dennis is originally from England, but has been in this country many years.  He has been making wine a professional since 1981.  When Dennis smells a wine bottle, he can tell you exactly what is in it and how it was made. 

His latest venture is the Dennis Drummond Wine Company.  Dennis is in the process of getting funding together for the company.  The land has been purchased along Highway 25 south of Brainerd and it is just a matter of time. 

The Bruchette Salad was excellent.
