a $10 trip to france

want to visit france on $10?  simply drive up to domain drouhin winery.  in less than 20 minutes i had arrived, picnic basket and sketchbook in hand, to one of the most gorgeous hilltops in our area.  it's no surprise that their other vineyard is in burgundy (and they chose dundee hills for a second home!)

most of the other guests were from states like texas, maryland and massachusettes and i had only hopped in my car for a short distance.  not to take my backyard for granted, i happily perched, munched and drew, after wandering the vines a bit for photos. www.domainedrouhin.com
