One if by land, two if by sea, three if it makes a four course meal

Living in Wine Country has its positives and negatives. The weather is great, the landscape is beautiful, the wines are delicious and the food is world class. There are beautiful parks, miles of trails to hike, redwoods to gaze and lovely rivers and streams. You can forage for mushrooms in the winter, tend your garden in the spring, bask in the warm days and cool nights of summer, and harvest a bounty of produce in the fall.

On the positive side, the beautiful Pacific Ocean is just a short ride away, with its rumbling surf tumbling over Dungeness crabs and abalone. Okay, so maybe there aren’t any negatives, but how would you know if you’ve never had the chance to visit or somebody to let you know. That’s where we can help.

Máire and I have had the good fortune to live in Sonoma County for 20+ years, and the greater fortune to travel the world and experience new sights, sounds and flavors. Putting that all together into our daily lives is an amazing opportunity that we’d like to share with you. Follow us as we trudge through our days full of work and play, layered liberally with transporting our daughter to her long calendar of activities. We’ll stop along the way to cook, eat, drink and enjoy the surroundings and document it for your pleasure. It may be a delicious meal, a great wine bargain, a fun new recipe or just a beautiful sunset. We hope you enjoy it!
