Coming up on the one year mark since opening Skywater Fine Wines, Neil Thompson joins us to talk about that adventure which started with the extreme challenges of running his Park Avenue Fine Wines in downtown Portland, before finally hanging up the towel there and moving west to brighter pastures.    He and his husband Hans opened two businesses between them, including Skywater Tea House a few months after the wine shop opened, to the delight of many local folks in Hillsboro that appreciated their businesses in their neighborhood.  Neil tells us about the evolution of both businesses, what they've learned, and what's working as a base for their exciting expansion plans.    For more background on Neil and Hans personally, you may want to click on this link from November of 2021  http://rightatthefork.com/shows/2021/11/11/294-neil-thompson-park-avenue-fine-wines?rq=thompson
