My friend Jill brought me up to Calistoga for my Christmas gift yesterday. We had a beautiful drive up there, the weather was gorgeous and then we ate lunch at a yummy Thai restaurant downtown. After lunch we went into some of the shops along main street. And you won't believe it but they have a real live bookstore that's still in business!
We headed on down the Silverado Trail to visit one of my favorite wineries - Frank Family!
It's a tad expensive but when I want to splurge on occasion - this my go to wine! The guy (Saul) who was pouring our tastings said that I looked familiar. We finally figured out that he worked at Chimney Rock Winery when my artist friends from BASA and I had a nine month show up there!
It was a beautiful day in the country with my beautiful friend!
Thanks Jill.
We need to celebrate Christmas more often!!!

a world not born until they arrive,
