Finally on solid ground in the United States, and figured I would do a brief post with a picture that just keeps on drawing my attention above all others. We were eating lunch on our way to the castle of Barolo, which conveniently houses the wine museum (where you learn about the history of wine). It takes about 2 years to get your final bill (and pay the bill) in Italy, so … [Read more...] about A Castle in the Rolling Hills of Barolo, Italy

This photo was taken just before the full sunsetĀ (a photo … [Read more...] about New Vines in Napa Valley Wine Country

Barn and Fields outside of Healdsburg, California

Maybe not the same as a full-fledged wedding, but the views still beautiful. This is an HDR photo right as the sun started to set on Napa Valley. I love Napa Valley. … [Read more...] about Napa Valley from the top of Auberge Du Soleil
