    1. You must come then and I will show you around, or else I will come back to Germany! Merry Christmas dear lady & Happy and Healthy New Year! 🔔🎉🎅🎁🎄

    1. Southern California looks like this. Northern California mountains are the fourth snowiest in the US. All of the snowiest places in the US are on the west coast. Tamarack in Northern California holds the record for the greatest single snowfall ever recorded on earth, 884 inches, according to wikipedia. It’s because warm moisture laden Pacific storms stall on west coast mountain ranges. Happy Holidays Alexander!🔔🎉🎅🎁🎄

      1. I see. Yes, looking at the map, I can realize, California has several climate zones, which are so much different from each other.
        As I understand, you live in Southern California among birds, flowers and vineyards.
        Happy Holidays!🙂🎄

      2. Thank you so kindly my lovely. I too look forward to another year with you and our wonderful community. Merry Christmas and Holiday hugs. <3 🙂

  15. We have a ew small wineries here in Western Mass but I don’t recall any of the rows of bushes being this colorful. How nice that they give not only fine wine but a lovely autumn display as well.

    1. Thank you very much Steve. Wine grape growing is complicated. I know nothing about it. Maybe, or maybe not, your grape leaves fall faster due to how hard and fast your winter falls. დ

  18. Wow the fall colors are glorious, so bright and pretty.
    I admire who-ever and how-ever they keep those vineyards so tidy and weed free. That has to be just years of experience and knowing what to safely use to fight weeds.
    Your last photo should be in a frame displayed on a wall.

    1. I am so sorry. I just found your comment in spam, hence my tardy reply. I hope you had a Joyous Christmas and Wish You Happiness & Health to you in The New Year! ⌚🔢🕛🎊

  28. Vineyards are so calming to look at! The work to keep them growing and thriving must be hard, but they are wonderful to admire for the view and wines. Thank you for sharing your captures!

  31. Beautiful photos! One house we lived in at Windsor, had a vineyard on one side, a prune orchard on another, and my dad used to ride his horse from the back side to the horse ranch he worked on. Another group of pictures that bring back memories. Thanks for sharing
