Vineyard Bound
Good morning everyone! With fall being just around the corner I've been dreaming of the little pleasures that autumn has in store. Apple picking, hockey, and trips to the wineries definitely top my list of favorite things about the start of the season.
We have wineries here in the area but lately I've been fantasizing about a little trip on over to the west coast to Napa, Sonoma or even Santa Barbara and Santa Ynez. There's something so magical about heading on over to wine country. The picturesque rolling hills, the cuisine, the way of life and of course the wine. It's all breathtaking and can easily steal a little piece of your heart. I know it has mine :)
Hope you all have a fabulous day and don't forget to enter the Betsey Johnson Bow Pendant Giveaway. Remember you can tweet every day for extra entries. Good luck!

Ahh, yes, the fall definitely has a magical feel...
LOVE a good wine tasting/tour! Have you ever been to the Finger Lakes?
<3
Oh my goodness, this is breathtaking...I adore wine country areas (well, who doesn't? :)). That 1st ensemble is inspiringly autumn-perfect (yes to tall boots and plummy coats!)
I loved visiting Napa when I went to Cali! Plus my dad has a vineyard in Spain so its nice to see what other people are doing :) Love all these photos!
A glass of wine is exactly what I need now! Just got back from yet another fun but exhausting day trip with the family.
Funny. I was talking to my fiance this morning that it has been a while since we last visited a winery.
A wine tasting would be perfect :-)
Lovely images !!!!

This all looks perfect! I went wine tasting in Tuscany but am dying to go to Napa too. There are some wineries in upstate NY...near Cuse where I went to school- I should take a trip there! :)
I love vinyards, I wish there was one closer to me so I can go take pics! and mmm white wine....
Wine country is magical indeed! Hope you get to go!
I've been wanting to take a trip to a vineyard for awhile! This might get the ball rolling for me.
looove wine country :) come to sb!
You always find so many beautiful photos to post!!
I forgot to answer you quite a while back when you asked me where I was from! The answer is BC! I love the mountains, and I always miss them when I'm away at university because it's so much flatter there!
Ce qui m'inspire
The photographs are lovely.
I live in California, we have low rolling hills everywhere (along the coast)...I just can't imagine life without them.
I have been dreaming of going to Napa for some time now! Oh, what a lovely trip it would be!!
We love Napa. We like to stay in Yountville. Cute little shops and lovely French restaurants. Cafe Jeantry is our favorite. Hope you make it soon.
Love all the beautiful photos you have shared today.
We have a lot of vineyards here on the Island where I live. One day I hope that you can make it over here and sample some of our wines.
Have a happy weekend
Hugs

Wine picking, and even better, tasting, sounds like the perfect weekend activity. ... and looking as pretty as the ladies in your pictures!
You find the most wonderful photos. K I am ready for fall now!!
Hope you are having a great week dear!

I've been wanting to plan a Napa tour for years! My mama raves about it!
ooh I would love to visit a winery once I turn 21.
That sounds incredible! I just missed wine fest in my area :( but I think I'm just going to throw my own on the back porch haha
Come to Napa! It is stunning. But honestly, my favorite wine tasting in Cali is the central coast. It isn't pretentious, the wineries are stunning, and the wine is perfection. If you come, maybe we can have a blogger meet-up?!:)

Vineyards are so much fun! Lovely pics :)

come here soon :)

a little bit of good wine makes everything better :)
Wineries are fun! The only time that I;ll probably consume alcohol is when I do some wine tasting! :)
my first time at a winery was in illinois of all places! (in Galena) - but it was SO incredibly gorgeous and I had so much fun - I definitely want to go to Napa someday!
