A Trip to Wine Country

Hello Everyone,

After the intensity of the past few weeks, it was so nice getting out of the cabin for a drive to the beautiful Shenandoah Valley in Northern California.  

It was a beautiful, crystal clear day at Helwig Winery just outside of Plymouth.

Mother Nature was exuding "fall" everywhere we looked.  The vineyards were putting on a display of color along with seeing snow in the mountains. It was a Thanksgiving kind of day.  We were thankful for the gorgeous day, weather, and the opportunity to soak it all in.

This was our lunch spot at the winery.  They are also pet friendly so Mazey enjoyed her day.

Luckily for us it was cool, and that makes the rattlesnakes a bit slower.  Maybe I could out run them with Mazey in tow. This sign was right by our picnic table.

We stopped at another winery on the way home, and saw this sign.  I'm very curious as to what word was blacked out.  So I guess we all have to fill in the blank.  What do you think?

We stopped at Water Street Antiques in Jackson on the way home.  Notice the red sold sign?  The sign had my name written all over it!  I named our new dining room table.....are you ready for this?  Meals on Wheels!  This is so unique and is going to look great in the cabin.  I'll take a picture after it's delivered.  It's going to take two men and a boy to get this table down to the cabin.  I think some dis-assembly is going to be required to get it through the door.

Our neighbors asked what was wrong with our old dining room table.  Joe said it had a flat tire, and needed alignment!  On that note.....

Soon,

Lynn
