A day in Calistoga, California

This post is actually from a couple days ago as I've been having some connection issues but here goes. Image #1 is my new favorite candy shop, I love how they have the coolest things from when I was a kid (a very long time ago). Images 3 & 4 are of Old Faithful Geyser, the first being just the start of the eruption. It actually went on for quite awhile and I think I got a good 30 or so shots of the whole thing. Just underneath those are the fainting goats (which no longer faint) but the little one did look as if it was falling asleep. Image 6 is of yours truly acting like a fool (just being me) throwing leaves up in the air while at the same time I am warned "ooh, watch out for that tarantula behind you" which was actually not a joke. Of course I got up and shot that as well. Chateau Montelena winery was absolutely gorgeous! A beautiful old castle on gorgeous grounds with a chinese influence from past owners. This was the first winery I visited and what an impression it has left. By the way, the little person in blue is indeed I. The last image is from the town in which I'm staying, very quiet, quaint & cute I felt this image captured the feeling well. Enjoy!
