Grapes of wrath...lol


Nah - this is not me....BUT - do wish I could have filched few bunches - ooohh they were really good !








* Assorted pics from Napa & Sonoma Valley (California) - place famous for their wines.
* Most of the establishments have been handed from generation to generation. So you could go through the long history of how all it started and nice sepia pics as old as 30's showing the family tree!!
* We started @ around 10 in the morning with our first wine testing round....and covered almost 5 wineries in the day( yippie)...needless to say we were sotted...lol....it was one long party which ended - 1 at night....nah wineries were closed late afternoon , so we came back to city had dinner and more wines....went for a dance party...again had more wines...!!
* Scoop of the trip -for our welcome our clients had hired Limo to take us out on wine testing trip. It was "Ghetto Fab Limo" -what they ordered on internet was not what they got....!! Oh mi god....they were not very happy....and beside cancelling the trip there was no other option available....so we took what we had !!
And this was just the good part - while midway....the airsuspension busted and we got landed ( literally with a whoosh) almost on road....lol...so we drowned our sorrow ( very happily in wines and champagne') - real merry bumpy ride back home -
* Song for the Road " Chalkaye Jaam......!!

For Cuckoo

















* The log cabin where I stayed with my friends in Sierra, and knowing me had put my bed outside ( see the extreme right sofa cum bed). I was at once with nature - never used ipod for even a single night -I use to doze off listening to nearby river flow.
* In the morning - one day I was sitting outside and havig very late leisure breakfast n I saw this lil humming bird. So I missed taking pics....guess what it came back after a while n it was actually my friend who got my digi for me. So I shot those quick pics.
* Lastly - this post is for you Cuckoo ( http//cuculus.blogspot.com) for being my..... inspiration !! Thanks :-)
