Out and About in Wine Country!!

My first wine tasting was in the middle of September with my friend Marcea. She works on the cardiac floor where I was floated to many times. We got together one Sunday for a little wine....here are the pictures.

The view from our first vineyard. There was a little band playing on the veranda, you could buy wine by the glass and order cheese and bread. What more could I ever want?

In the small town of Healdsburg, about 20 minutes north on Hwy 101, is the La Crema Tasting Room. AKA Heaven! If you can't find me in Santa Rosa...you might try here.

They even let me behind the counter once...I took advantage of the opportunity!

I couldn't get enough pictures of the different views I was seeing. I felt like I was in the movie Sideways! Everywhere I turned there was a beautiful view.

This was our third stop. Most of the vineyards have picnic areas for you to come buy a bottle of wine, enjoy your picnic with a view.

This vineyard had a pirate theme.

More shots in an amongst the grapes. I was wanting to be one with the vine! lol.

It really is a rough place to be living...but I am really trying to make the most of it. LOL.

We were able to see the wine actually being made at one of the vineyards.

Marcea getting in on some picking.....or stealing.

I'm wanting to take a few bunches home.

They were a little difficult to get off the vine.
And we were not wanting to get caught.

I got the goods!

Too beautiful!!!
