Korbel Vineyards in the Summer

Driving through Guerneville,Ca. on a hot summer day by the Russian River I couldn't resist but snap these shots of the gorgeous Korbel Champagne Vineyards. I live so close to here but driving down the road on the way to the Korbel cellars for a picnic or a day at the beach or a day to splash around in the river is like being on a vacation~heavenly!

Early Spring Vineyard Mustard Fields

Spring has arrived in wine country with waves of yellow mustard fields! It's time for Sunday drives and picnics in the countryside with local cheese,artisan bread, new wine and maybe even some wholegrain mustard! Spend the day with those you love...

Foggy Fall Mornings

It's autumn once again. The leaves have changed beautiful colors. My youngest daughter and I love to go for walks, kicking the leaves,some of them bigger than our faces. In the morning when I take the kids to school I drive by the vineyards. Here are some shots I took one foggy morning in October.

Here are some of my photos that I would like to share with you...
