Fall Creek Vineyards -- Tow, Texas
Established in the mid 1970's, this is one of the older vineyards of Texas. Located on the northern part of Lake Buchanan, the rich sandy loam soil coupled with the warm days and cool breezes provides an ideal climate for growing quality grapes. At the winery, one can find a wide selection of many great tasting quality and affordable wines. When folks say you don't need to pay $50 dollars or more for a high quality wine, then you know they've been to Fall Creek Vineyards. Many of their great tasting and quality wines are under $20.

Dangerous Trailers.Org Presents Cause of Fatal Hayride Crash Part One
If this was a Charter Jet....that crashed....destroying one and injuring over 25 what would be happening? If this was a Charter Bus with the same what would be happening? Then why is not the NTSB investigating this....do we really trust Maine to really tell us the truth? Here it is....
The trailer was homemade.....
The Jeep was garbage using a class one hitch
The Jeep was not rated and the cheap tow package was not rated to tow about 5,000 pounds.
The Farmers who are cheap who simply want a quick profit have lobbied against BASIC life saving safety standards.
The Hitch pin failed and broke.....they used an untested and see this book to better understand how these cheap farmers use these defective products.
As long as they used these defective products on their own land and family you have the right. The minute they decide to use these dangerous trailers and hayrides for public use....then we need safety standards. This life was lost due to our Government that advocates Cupcake Control and standards but not trailer safety standards. Would you rather get sick from a spoiled cupcake or loos your life by defective trailers?

The operator in a Mechanic Falls, Maine, hayride crash that killed a teenager and injured 22 others could not stop due to a mechanical failure, police said Sunday.
Authorities say the Harvest Hills' Gauntlet Hayride, a small jeep pulling a flatbed trailer, missed a turn on a steep dirt road and jack-knifed. The jeep went off the road and the trailer hit a tree, sending riders tumbling to the ground.
Teen Killed, 22 Others Injured in Hayride Crash
The Saturday night crash claimed the life of 17-year-old Cassidy Charette of Oakland, Maine, according to the Maine Sate Fire Marshal's office.
They say that two others were seriously injured. The operator, 54-year-old David Brown of South Paris is being treated at Central Maine Medical Center. A 16-year-old, Connor Garland of Belgrade, was transported to Boston Children's Hospital and is in fair condition.
Authorities say all 23 people on board were injured. The Fire Marshal says injuries include broken legs, arms, shoulders, and backs.
Many of those injured were treated and released Sunday, but some remain hospitalized.

HARVEST HOSTS REVIEW - Free Camping in Texas!
HARVEST HOST REVIEW
What is Harvest Host?
Harvest Host is a membership program that connects RV’ers with various overnight hosts across the country. Hosts can range from museums, breweries, farms, wineries to even an alligator ranch. Free camping at wineries? Count us in!
We first heard about Harvest Host through Youtube. Seeing as we’d like to stay overnight at a few wineries over the next year anyway it absolutely made sense to spend the $49 so that we could easily connect with hosts that were happy to have us. The rule of thumb when staying with hosts is that you only stay one night and spend at least $20.
In practice, we’ve been more welcome than we could imagine. While it’s truly on a case by case basis, we’ve been invited to stay for more than one night and we’ve been happy to spend way beyond the twenty dollars suggest. If the choice comes down to staying at a crowded campground or spending $40 on wine tastings and a bottle while staying at a picturesque winery, which one would you choose?
Members need to have self contained RVs. At this time, tent camping is not allowed.
So far we’ve stayed a total of 3 nights with 2 different Harvest Hosts. Both wineries that we stayed with were incredibly welcoming and we had a blast with their tastings and relaxing with a bottle on their property. We also visited an Alligator Farm but chose not to spend the night simply because it was so early in the day and we had some more driving to do!
Finally, the Harvest Host program has its own dedicated app which makes finding hosts pretty easy along the way. There are certainly some areas of the U.S. which have MANY more hosts available than others but that has a lot to do with what type of businesses that area supports. For example, Texas had TONS of wineries that you were able to stay at.
