Travel Tuesday: Out and About in Napa and Sonoma

Happy Travel Tuesday! We leave for Ireland in a month, and have a trip to New Jersey to visit family in between then and now so I am feeling good about feeding the wanderlust these days. We’re also still reminiscing about an amazing Sonoma holiday over Labor Day weekend, so today I thought I would share some out and about photos, places I didn’t necessarily photograph in-depth and pretty pictures I caught along our travels. Enjoy!

{Napa County Road and the bluest sky}

{Hog Island Oyster Co. – get ready for some shucking!}

{The Magnificent Sonoma Coast}

{Chocolate and Fig Salted Caramel Trifle at The Girl and the Fig}

{Passaggio Wines new tasting room in Sonoma – I love Passaggio Wine but was not bright enough to check the tasting room hours and showed up on a closed day. From what I could see, it is beautiful.}

{Russian River Valley sunset from our Flipkey Sonoma home}

{Sun-baked Dry Creek Valley land in August – I LOVE the heat.}

{Cooling off at Truett Hurst, one of my favorite Dry Creek Valley wineries}

{Truett Hurst Sauvignon Blanc, riverside}

{Dry Creek General Store – a favorite for a cold beer, Dry Creek Valley views, great sandwiches, and people-watching}

{Gorgeous Pinot Noir, Grateful Dead memorabilia, and rap music at Holdredge – so.much.fun. Who says wine is snobby?}
