We’ve enjoyed the drive Darrell Sano took on Sunday, along Dry Creek Rd. in Sonoma County.
At this time of year, the pastoral scene is accented with yellow, orange and red. As Darrell writes, “It’s a beautiful drive, as the road narrows to sometimes a single, winding road, void of limo’s and heavy traffic.
“The morning air was crisp and cool, and although the grapes have been harvested for the year, I saw pickers harvesting the other fruit–beautiful olives–that becomes olive oil.
“Wine Country is different from the Sierra, there are still vistas of pure green vines, but turn a corner and then a wash of brilliant red comes into view, that then transitions to a past peak field of brown-ochre.
“West Dry Creek offered the perfect fall drive at a very slow pace, and although there are still fields yet to turn, I would recommend to go now. With the rain storms heading our way, don’t take a chance, get up to wine country and enjoy the views.”
Couldn’t have said it better.
