More wine than winter at the 6th annual Niwot celebration

The guest of honor was a no-show, but that didn't deter the hundreds of thirsty shoppers who descended on Niwot on Feb. 22 for the 6th annual Let's Wine About Winter store-to-store tasting event and fundraiser. Mild temperatures and melting snow were the order of the day, as ticket holders made their way through three dozen local businesses offering food and beverages, as well as some sweet deals. That included the "Seesters," seen here on 2nd Avenue taking a much needed time out.
