Welcome to our home here at Strat's
Place. Betsy and I hope that you enjoy your time here.
From our humble beginning in 1995, we have tried
to make this a comfortable, non-commercial place where people can
share in the topics that we love. Wine - Gardening and the Arts.
Little did we know it would grow to over 3 gigabytes of information
with over 1.8 million hits per month! Even with this growth, we've
held fast to keeping Strat's Place free
and non-commercial.
Strat's Place is not really our
creation. Rather it is the result of the contributions from the
1000's of readers who, over the years, have unselfishly shared
their thoughts and experiences with us.
