On the day after Thanksgiving while many went to the stores to shop, we went driving out in the Napa Valley and Clearlake area. We wanted some fresh air and some autumn sightings. I posted this day trip here.
I work for a regional government agency here in the Bay Area and am writing to inquire about the availability of a beautiful shot from your blog of Point Pinole in 2008. We are wondering whether we can use the photo for use in a mailer we are sending to notify the public about public hearings we are holding in January about Plan Bay Area, the region’s long-term transportation and housing/land-use plan. We have a small budget to purchase usage rights. Please contact me at cnoble@mtc.ca.gov.
I apologize if this was not the appropriate place to post my request to use your Point Pinole photo. Unfortunately, I did not see any other way to contact to the owner of this blog.
What gorgeous autumn shots. The trees are beautiful. Like the oval shot in the middle. That style os always appealing to me. Sounds like a great day. It looks like Mr. Noble likes your work just as the rest of us do. genie

No tours or tastings that day
The scenery and colors are very intoxicating, however.

I guess the wine is so good they don’t need to advertise!
