GILROY • MORGAN HILL • SAN MARTIN
I
met Jim O’Briant and Kay Spencer at the
regular Wednesday night dinner at the Gilroy
Elks Lodge. I found out that Jim was the
Director of the Pacific Brass Band, a 30-piece
brass band. To my surprise, Kay said she had worked
for the San Martin Winery back when they had
tasting rooms in San Martin, San José and Monterey.
The winery was among the first in California to have
tasting rooms with their wineries. Back in the 1960s
I’d worked there too, on weekends, for a whopping
$1.94 an hour and a 50% discount on the wine.
