Let me introduce you to my world - first, the vineyard, busy producing that most wonderful grape - the pinot noir.
Next, the barn/studio where if you listen carefully, that clinking noise you hear is my creative right brain at full throttle.
Meet the "boys", Beau and Tank, the backbone of the farm and the best companions, protectors, squirrel chasers and chicken herders you could ever hope for.
But everyone has a soft side...............
A few of the specimen 'crazies' on the farm - many stories to be told. Shown here are LowRain, Zsa Zsa, Marquis de Sade (Markie for short), and yes, he's named appropriately, and Aretha.
The real Queen of Daffodil Hill is Daphne, a 50 Chevy pickup with a 68 Impala engine......she purrs.........
Life is good! Two big boy dogs, one genius girl cat who can count, eight free range, stubborn chickens, twenty acres of pinot noir grapes, a yearly lavender festival, almost enough time to spend in my studio and some of the world's best friends and family. Who could want more?
