Welcome Napa!!! Sounds like such a fulfilling life you've chosen for yourself. I am anxious to learn more about your farm--wine country is really sooo beautiful. Will check out your blog on my lunch hour (still working the office job :))
Welcome!!!

Welcome napafarmhouse1885--I visited Napa Valley 2 years ago, about this time of year--beautiful country. I retired 7 years ago from teaching elementary school, and I, too, wonder how I had time to work. These 7 years have flown by. I hope you are able to get your group together. Have a great time!
