Every Friday Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read hosts Feature and Follow Friday. One lucky blog is featured and interviewed while the rest of us post our own responses to the question of the week and blog hop to say hello to each other!
This week's question:
Q: Summer Break is upon us! What would be the perfect vacation spot for you to catch up on your reading & relax?
HeatherJay's answer:
This one was easy. Living in Reno, it's just a quick 3 hour drive over to Napa Valley. I get over there as often as possible 'cuz it is HEAVEN! My first stop is always Mumm Winery. They have a beautiful patio over-looking the vineyard and it is so quiet and peaceful. Perfect for an afternoon of book reading. Not to mention the copious amounts of sparkling wine.

Thats pretty beautiful!!
Well since I live in Chicago going down out to Lake Michigan would be nice! I would sit in one of my chairs and just chillax with the sun and the breeze! I would love to go to Wisconsin and chill at Lake Geneva...that would be great! I'd just have to make sure the kiddies are occupied so I get no interuptions ;)
North Ave Beach(My Fav!)
Lake Geneva, WI
That looks very peaceful!

ReplyDeleteHopping through. Love Napa! Since you're in Chicago, do you ever go to Galena? That's one of my fav places.

Hey ladies!
ReplyDeleteBoth sound very nice! I don't drink wine but would love to go just for the scenery! It's gorgeous.
My hubs is from Chicago but I've never been. Some day we'll get there! I think I will fall in love with that city but couldn't live there. I couldn't handle the winters! I haven't lived where it snows in about 12 years.
Both great spots.
ReplyDeleteThat patio looks so inviting and I love reading by the water.
Here's my Follow Friday. Stop by if you get a chance.
Great views in both places.. Really lovin' the winery :)

Thanks for stopping by, Heather :) I would LOVE to go to Napa Valley. Maybe when the kiddies get older ;-)

I honestly don't know how anyone gets anything done in Napa because it's so pretty there! I'd just stand outside all day if I lived there, haha. New Follower!
ReplyDeletePreet, not to mention that you are three sheets to the wind by 10 am. ;D
DeleteThanks for following!
I love both of your choices!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
