Cooling our heals in Calistoga

After a fabulous visit with Barbara and Richard in Bend, OR we arrived in Calistoga, CA on 5/11. Our friends Chip Sellarole and Tammy Kennon are living in St. Helena soaking up the essence of wine country. We were fortunate enough to meet these wonderful people on mindmyhouse.com and they housesat our house for January and February after moving off their sailboat and getting their land legs back. Having owned a wine shop before selling everything and moving onto their boat 4 years ago so living in the midst of wine country is heaven for them. So fun to see it through their knowledgeable and curious eyes. Tammy, a writer and blogger, passed on some good tips for blogging. You can see her blog at http://ploddinginparadise.blogspot.com/
