it is indeed sad to see it all boarded up like that. the building itself seems to be in fairly good shape, so it's a shame they haven't tried to restore it.
I agree ... it IS sad to see it that way, but it might be of some consolation to note that Gary Conway (Rick Carsini) is the real-life proprietor of Carmody McKnight Winery in Paso Robles, California.
There are plans to restore the winery buildings, actually. In the mean time, it's kind of cool in this state - it's probably what would have happened after Adrian was sent away!
by the way, I didnt realize that the guy who played carsini was also the same guy played in Halloween! Im still learning a lot about these earlier episodes of Columbo (pre-ABC)
The winery structures are scheduled for renovation. In the meanwhile, I like it here; this is how things would have turned out after sending Adrian away. geometry dash
