The phone rang around 11:00 and it was Dianna, my daughter-in-law, and she was on her way to Santa Rosa with her mother, Irene, and her oldest son, Tobin. They wanted to know if I would like to join them on a little trip to Healdsburg to pick up some wine for a friend of theirs.
Armida is snuggled away at the edge of Healdsburg and some of the initial directions even confused Irene's GPS system. We drove up and up a winding road to the top of a hill and there it was. Beautiful!!! I took this picture from the deck where we sat and ate the lunch that Dianna had packed and surprised us with..........
It is a given with this family, outing = camera........
See what I mean........
Amazing how green and beautiful it is since this is such a warm climate....
As Dianna stalks another victim to shoot.....with the camera....
Checking out the pictures taken.......see, it's all about the pictures!!!!
Ahhhhh......our ride is here and it's time to go. What a lovely little surprise for me.
NO ! ! !......not our ride, but that's how they do it around here. You join a Wine Country Tour and go from winery to winery in style, letting someone else drive.

Did you guys take the limo up there? What a beautiful spot and what a treat for you all to spend the afternoon together. Glad you had a good time...very beautiful.
ooops just re-read...not your ride. Was wondering why they are all holding the camera yet they are in the pictures but you are not!...lol You really need me there to force you into the pictures I can see. lol
We're going on a November Oregon Wine Country tour weekend in McMinnville. I get to be the Limo and designated driver......
Good photos Pal.
Look at the second picture in the background. See the Small gray SUV's. My limo was the one on the far end.
LOL!!!

What a nice treat for you. Say hi to Diana for me sometime. Great pictures of all except you were not in them. Beautiful countryside and almost looks like Washington....You certainly had a fun day!
So thrilled to find your blog. Not so many are kept by those in our demographic!
Maggie,
So nice you found us. We are called
"the Biddy's" and we have known each other since we were quite young. I started the blog but some of the gals post from time to time. We talk a lot about the past and how things were.
Christine is one of the daughters of a Biddy and we call her the "Itty Bitty Biddy" or "Biddy in Training".
Pdot...
