One with Napa...and nature

Napa is beautiful. You can't deny that. Sunday was a Black Chicken Society get-together at Biale. "What is the Black Chicken Society?" you might ask. Well, during prohibition people would call Biale and ask for eggs and (for example) 6 black chickens. It was code for their wine. :) I love that kind of history story. Interesting! So they call their wine club the Black Chicken Society and it makes me feel special to belong to it. Their porch is great for a day of wine tasting with friends. The scenery is spectacular. But Sunday was a special event. All the members were able to taste 10-12 different wines and have appetizers in the back warehouse area of the winery. There was even an accordion player. We took a lovely stroll through the vines and got some fun pictures.




God sure created some beauty in this world. Oregon and now Napa have really made me stop and admire creation. I think it's a wonderful reminder to soak it all up!
