Market Friday in Sonoma, California

in #hive-1244522 years ago

It's Friday one again! And it is time for my all-time favorite tags!

Don Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo, famed Californio statesman and general, founded Sonoma in 1835.

A friend learned that I was visiting. The history of our friendship goes all the back when I would regularly come for vacations from Hawaii.

She called me up and asked that we meet in Sonoma Plaza.

You can see her reflected on the right (and I am on the left), when I took a photo of this window display!


We actually bought a bottle of wine and some appetizers. We spent catching up with one another as we sat on one of the picnic tables in the square.



The town square is itself small and quaint. Shops line up the entire square.


There are galleries, the old cheese factory, olive oil, wineries, restaurants, all sorts of shops... I'll tell you more when I have the time to post all photos.


The local folks as well as people from all over come the bay area come and visit to eat their meals, afternoon teas, wine tasting, shopping, and just to browse the stores.





Sonoma is just an hour away from San Francisco. We have, I think, about 500 wineries down here (per reports), and lots of farm-to-table dining at restaurants run by acclaimed chefs, farmers, and winemakers.



These photos were taken in Sonoma, California.

It was wonderful! I when I came here last, I wasn't able to see her! This time around, I made it a point to reserve the while afternoon with her.
There so many shops to visit, but since I was there to catch up with her, there was hardly time to take photos, hahaha!
A big hug to you too, @littlebee4 !

It looks beautiful there, sis! I am thinking I need a change of scenery, but will unlikely get anywhere until next month when we head down to our son's town home to look in on his kitty as he and his wife are visiting her parents in Hungary.

The shops look interesting too. I could lose myself there for quite a while, I imagine. Lovely pics.😊

Enjoy your time there! Much love!🤗🌸😘💞 !LADY

What a spectacular area. I love Sonoma! I lived in the Bay Area for quite a while, then in the central valley, in the town of Davis. I truly miss it. We got married at a winery in the coastal hills and then spent our honeymoon on the coast and in the wine country. This really takes me back! (Now I live in Minnesota. Sigh!)

Great pictures. I love that California autumn sun!

I heard so many nice things about Minnesota, although I have not been there yet!
I sure you miss it, @jayna !
