Forth Winery

For Preston's 30th birthday, we went wine tasting in the Alexander Valley, and his father-in-law knows the owners of Forth Vineyards, Gerry and Jann. Since it was around the holidays and the tasting room was closed, they invited us into their house for a private tasting. It was incredible--great wine, great hospitality, great company. Happy birthday Preston! Oh yeah, go visit own Forth Vineyards http://www.forthvineyards.com

The Grapevine has been closed intermittently. It was open, but there was snow around. Crazy.

Bird on a wire

I've tried to get away from sunset pictures lately. They look cool, but they're not too challenging. This bird, however, caught my eye. I thought the single bird sitting on a telephone wire looked very cool. There's also the palm trees throughout the shot, which are always interesting to me. I thought of doing a palm tree book once.

Intersection

I still don't like the rain. However, roads like way more interesting when they are wet. And since I rarely see wet roads, it's pretty interesting to me. So I took this photo at a red light. See, there are upsides to just missing a light.

Zebra bells

In my classroom, I ring the bell whenever I need the kids to stop. This particular time, I noticed the reflection in the bell. It looks like a zebra (sort of) to me.

I hate the rain

Rain, rain, go away. Go away forever. I don't like rain. I don't like anything about the rain. You just get wet, and people crash into your car more often.

Name this restaurant. Here's a clue: it represents awesomeness, both in the restaurant, and out the restaurant.
