Oh what gorgeous weather we are having on our vacay here in Napa Valley. Last night hubby and I took the shuttle into town and walked along the riverfront.
With all of the gorgeous flowers and greenery growing up the buildings I felt as though I was in Italy.
The Agapanthus blooms were huge and they are growing everywhere!
After our stroll we dined at this wonderful restaurant by the river.
This fabulous light hangs outdoors.
Hubby had battered catfish and chips and I had a black (Angus) & blue (cheese) salad. Both were delicious!
Everywhere we go we see lots of these blooming trees. Some are white, and others various shades of pink. Wondering if it’s a Crepe Myrtle?. . .Gorgeous!
Beautiful Strawberry Vanilla Hydrangea. I have one of these in my garden at home. It was just in bud when I left.
This monument Is a tribute to 9/11. The beams are from the twin towers. Seeing all of the names of those whose lives were sacrificed was a sobering moment!
I love old structures so this bridge caught my eye.
I’ll leave you with this cute little topiary squirrel.
Remember, Share Your Cup will return next week. Hope to see you then!
hugs,
Jann

Looks like a fun time, enjoy!
Jann, What fun things to see and do on your vacation. I loved all the flowers. We have some of those beams in Indy also. You and your husband look great , xoxo,Susie
One of my brothers used to live in Napa. I loved visiting him there. The wine bottle light fixture is really cool! Have a great trip.
A CREPE MYRTLE?? Absolutely correct w/o a doubt. Living in the deep south [Alabama] Crepe myrtle is considered traditionally southern tree. My own favorite is a bold Red color..that's what I have in my yard ..almost forgot-I have one like yours pictured too.
Loved your pictures!
Enjoyed the tour - thanks for sharing it with us. Yes crepe myrtle. In bloom all over around here now.
Enjoy your evening.
Beautiful pictures, Jann. I can see you are really having a good time. Enjoy the rest of your vacation!
It looks like you're having a wonderful time, Jann! My late beloved hubby and I went to Sonoma several years ago and visited Napa, also. Enjoy your time.
What gorgeous flowers! It does look a bit like Italy, even the architecture. So glad you're having a good trip.
Blessings,
Patti

Oh what a beautiful place to go for vacation.
Napa, Sonoma and Mendicino areas are lovely!! I think those are crape myrtle. I love the old bridge photo!
So pretty! Hopefully someday I will get to travel to the other side of the country to see all the gorgeous scenery in person!
Glad you and your hubby are enjoying your trip! I'm loving your photos, especially the garden shots!! Continued safe travels, Jann!
