Vineyard


We took a day trip to a vineyard and winery. 
Mr. Garden enjoyed the wine tasting and brought a few bottles home.
I just oohed and aahhed over the scenery.


Have you ever done this?

    Sounds and seems like a lovely way to spend the day! Thanks so much for visiting God's Little People - sounds like you've got a wonderful husband volounteering with cats! Your quilts are amazing and what a trendous cause to auction them for. I use vintage fabrics in my new stitching creations and imagine I would swoon over your finds!

    Gayle we have done this for years. Hermanoff was a favorite stop. I am not a drinker but the rolling hills and scenery are gorgeous. We rode the Katy trail and enjoyed it all. Best German food I have ever had....smiles...Renee

    We had a marvelous time, quite a few years ago, touring Mondovi - Beautiful and very educational.

    My Dad does corporate insurance, and he used to take him with me a lot when he visited the wineries he insured when I was a teen. It was really interesting - although I wasn't old enough to sample the wines, the owners loved to tell me about the process of making the wine.
