SmugMug > popular all-time > November 14, 2009 Visited the O'Shaughnessy Winery in the Napa Valley today (c'mon, we had to). We've been fans of their delicious wines for years, and not just because of the name--we even served their wine at my son's wedding last month. The winery is beautiful, and their cave is carved into the hillside, in the shape of an O. Cool place.

SmugMug > popular all-time > This is about how I feel. It was a hectic weekend, between the Cadillac Club Christmas party and celebrating our son's birthday. I hope to be able to sit down and catch up with all of you soon, and see all the lovely photos you've taken over the weekend. ..... although I suddenly realized that Christmas is next week! Yikes! :-) (December 13, 2009) "Sometimes the most urgent thing you can possibly do is take a complete rest.” ~~ Ashleigh Brilliant Thank you Sparky and George, for the suggestion to crop this shot. You're right, I like it much better now! Thanks!

SmugMug > popular all-time > November 19, 2009 - "Point Bolivar Lighthouse" Photographed one week ago. from NPR (2008) "It has become clear that Galveston Island was nearly ruined by Hurricane Ike. But compared to the Bolivar Peninsula, just northeast of the island, Galveston was lucky. Instead of entire neighborhoods, entire towns disappeared. Upon returning to Gilchrist, residents who had lived in the coastal town for more than half a century could not locate their houses or even figure out where their street had been. ....." From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Point Bolivar Light is a historic lighthouse in Port Bolivar, Texas, that was built in 1872. It served for 61 years before being retired in 1933, when its function was replaced by a different light. The current lighthouse is at least the second structure at the site. The first lighthouse was built in the mid 1850s and was pulled down during the Civil War so that Union warships could not use it as a navigational aid. During the Galveston Hurricane of 1900, the lighthouse served as a shelter for at least 125 people, saving their lives. It also survived another hurricane, in 1915, where winds of 126 miles per hour were recorded. The first lighthouse keeper, H.C. Claiborne, retired in 1918, after witnessing those two storms, and was replaced by a Captain J. Brooks. In 1947 the lighthouse was sold and, although still standing, is not open to the public. The 1970 film My Sweet Charlie, starring Patty Duke and Al Freeman Jr. was filmed at the lighthouse and adjacent caretaker's house. The lighthouse is adjacent to the Houston Audubon Society's Horseshoe Marsh Bird Sanctuary. The lighthouse was reported to have been destroyed by Hurricane Ike in September 2008. However, later eyewitness investigation found the structure appeared, at least from the air, unharmed.
