Honora and I spent Wednesday afternoon in the “wine country.” We started with lunch on the patio at Rustic, the restaurant at Francis Ford Coppola’s winery in Geyserville where I took this shot of Honora with acres of vineyards in the background. Our table was just a couple of feet away from the lovely rose and herb garden.
We had a delightful afternoon examining the huge collection of Francis Ford Coppola memorabilia, including his Oscars (I’d never seen an Oscar in the flesh – uh, gold before) and a number of Golden Globes and Palmes D’Or. There were costumes and photographs and props from the various “Godfather” and other films and even the Tucker automobile from “Tucker.” It was a really fun place to explore.
