Travels Around
In which we catch up just a bit
Haven't posted here in a while -- there's just no time -- but I thought I'd catch up with a few photos from recent trips around the Napa / Winters / Davis area. No long explication, just a few photos and captions.
Proud as a peacock... on the road between Winters and the Napa Valley...
Great nephew Nate stands by the wheel of a steam locomotive at the California State Railroad Museum, Sacramento...
Nate shows us how the steam locomotive works...
A burro at a small ranch off of Olive School Road near Winters...
More burros... If you "chk-chk" at them, they come right up to you for a scratch behind the ears. They love that...
An emu also at a ranch off Olive School Road. Pet emu. Fancy that...
One of several lamas at a farm between Winters and Napa...
Castello di Amorosa, a winery and tourist attraction in the Napa Valley. This is the most authentic reproduction of a medieval castle I have seen in the U.S. -- and I've seen a lot of castles in England and Scotland...
Lone tower at the Castello...
A small lake on the road between Winters and the Napa Valley... Not sure which one...
E Clampus Vitus plaque outside the Robert Louis Stevenson Silverado Museum in St. Helena, in the Napa Valley... Kind of a crappy photo, but you can't take pictures inside the museum, sadly. It's worth the trip if you're an RLS fan, though.
