We are off the Pacific coast and beginning phase 3 of our trip. The plan is to start at Yosemite National Park and continue south then east seeing every National Park we can. Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Sequoia, and the list goes on. I'm so excited about this phase! I can't wait!
OK, so I've been excited about every inch of this trip! What an epic adventure we are having.

Today we traveled through wine country.
Stopped at Benzinger Winery and took a tour. Very interesting! They are a certified bio dynamic vineyard. Not exactly sure what that means. But they have taken 50 of their 85 acres out of grape production and planted plants which will support insects that help protect the vines.

Today was the first day of picking grapes for the red wine.
They had already harvested all of the white wine grapes. The bees were out since the brix ( A measurement of the sugar content) was high and ready for harvest.
A gypsy among the vines.
How pretty this part of California is!!
We made one more winery stop at Buena Vista, then walked around a Napa shopping districts, had lunch and moved on. We're spending the night in Angels Camp, California.
Tomorrow we explore Yosemite National Park!
