Another great day in the Napa Valley.  We enjoyed a very lazy morning and then headed out to see what was happening at some of the vineyards.

Our first stop was Castello di Amorosawww.castellodiamorosa.com .We decided just to enjoy  walking the grounds of the castle instead of doing one of the tours.



They were getting ready for a Halloween  Ball that was happening that night... 

These chickens thought it was a great time for a dirt bath...
Check out this hairdo...
Grapes as far as the eye could see...

There are just so many wineries here that it's hard to know where to stop....so we just drove until something caught our eye....

The beautiful leaves make this a great time to visit...



Made a stop at the Culinary Institute of American at Greystone. Gorgeous old building built in 1888 which used to be a winery. Enjoyed lunch in their bakery cafe...



 Next stop to Beringer Winery....

 Enjoyed a glass of wine...

And a little music...

 Then into St. Helena to do some window shopping...

Spied this really neat old jeep....real attention to detail on this one...

Time to go back to the trailer to enjoy the sunshine and 30 degree temperatures....and of course a glass of wine....Not the $110 a bottle wine we saw at the Beringer Winery mind you....but great wine none-the-less.....
