It is now officially summer; so I thought some summer pictures would be appropriate. We have the 4th of July just around the corner. So what are your 4th of July plans? It is officially my weekend so I am taking Roy Kelley’s advice and finding the perfect drink to blog by, tonight I am drinking a glass of Ferrari Carano Sauvignon Blanc 2013. It is very good and light and in keeping with my summer theme. Roy I am having one for you, cheers!
Patrick - Nothing better than a beach as far as I concerned anytime of year!
Silvia - Boo! A summer cold is the worse to get rid of. I had one in early May it took 2 weeks to get rid of with lots of chicken noodle soup and hot tea!
Thanks for the mention. I blogged about my Happy Hour Black Russian today.

Beautiful view! There's nothing like looking at water to calm the soul. Happy summer and have a safe 4th of July!

It's hard to believe that we are nearly half way through 2014 already. It's been an exceptionally busy year!

I hadn't heard about this winery till your post, went to there site and checked out the wine being a Sau blanc drinker myself. cheers cvc
SONOMA COUNTY
Ferrari-Carano’s 2013 Fumé Blanc has delicious aromas of white peach, orange blossom, pear, quince, Meyer lemon and mango complemented by peach, grapefruit, pear and lemon flavors. This wine has bright acidity and crisp freshness from the cool, stainless steel tank fermentation, while the subtle oak character from barrel aging adds, body, complexity and depth.

Summer and the water go together like a cup and tea! Cannot imagine a vacation without water involved.
Yolanda-Nothing like a body of water to take the edge off the heat of the season. Enjoy.

As hot as you guys profess it gets down there during summer, you are a brave girl to drink a red. Do I hear UMBRELLAS all day long. My drink of choice on a hot summer day. cheers cvc

Curtis,
A Sauvignion Blanc is a white, but I do drink reds in the summer that is the only thing I drink with steak.
Yolanda, how far is Katy, Texas from a large and beachy body of water where you can escape that Texas summer heat(if that is possible)?
