In the #napasonoma #marsh, @bobfisher007 of @wombatcharters coasted by several eucalyptus trees where two #redtailedhawks guarded their nest. The #hawks were larger than I expected and simply gorgeous when they launched into the air and began flapping a wingspan of 52 inches. What a treat to see the second largest #hawk in North America on my birthday. On a day like that when winds were high and a storm whipped up the water into waves on the Napa River, the #redtailedhawk likes to face the wind and hover without using its wings! A good reminder of the kind of attitude we need to adopt during these unpredictable times.

@longmeadowranch #farmstead restaurant features ingredients from their #farm, #ranch and #vineyard. Our lunch began with their “easy as pie” #cocktail made of strawberry and rose infused vodka, apple brown butter, and lemon verbena. Swipe left to see appetizers Mexican style street #corn w/spicy mayo and redwood hills feta. My favorite was their cheddar biscuits which I drenched with honey butter. We got two orders of their Heritage St Louis #ribs ... juicy with a crisp crust. Pair it all with their t#sauvignonblanc ! #farmstead @visitnapavalley #longmeadowranch #longmeadow

What a wonderful way to dine during #covid19 ! The kids could run around the garden where they grow many of the fruit and herbs and veggies used in their ingredients. We could sink our toes in the grass below our table and smell the pomegranate trees rustling in the breeze. You aren’t seated anywhere near other guests.

Start with @ciaatcopia #bourbon #sweettea (made of summer peach tea, bourbon, lemonade, and simple syrup). They offer a #garden supper priced at $40 per person which includes a first course (tonight it was ...swipe left... garden frisée salad w/toasted hazelnuts and a creamy mustard dressing...the nuts gave a nice crunch & salty taste to the dish); main (swipe left...wood fire roasted salmon wrapped in fig leaves w/sorrel butter, creamer potatoes and green beans); dessert ( swipe left... #apricot and amaretti #crostata with #almonds). #ciaatcopia @theculinaryinstituteofamerica

Kept me warm and willing to bushwhack through #tule and sink into mud and algae and who knows what else as I walked into #napariver @redingtongear #waders and #boots in @visitnapavalley #napasonomamarsh ... fishing for striped bass.
