Passing Through Wine Country

Since we're in no hurry to head south with all the other snowbirds we decided to spend a few days amongst the vineyards.


It was all beautiful but the best thing was the smell of the grapes. Because it is the "crushing" time of year, the aroma of the fresh grapes was everywhere we went.

Speaking of snowbirds, it's a bit warm here, almost hot with highs in the upper 80s. After 2 1/2 months on the coast we've become accustomed to 60-70 degree foggy weather which we really like. 'hope we're not heading for the desert too soon.
