Sestri Levante: An Undiscovered Seaside Italian Gem
Wine-Knows: Fine Wine and Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler: An Undiscovered Seaside Italian Gem: 'via Blog this'
It's great to learn about Sestri Levante. The photo on the Wine-Knows Travel blog is so lovely I want to go there!
It reminds me of past trips to nearby Cinque Terre, and walking the path through all five villages.

So be safe by checking out the USDA free food safety tips.
Have fun and don't get sick or make others sick.

Wine-Knows: Fine Wine and Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler: CORKAGE FEES---a Different Viewpoint: Many of us have succumbed reluctantly to the outrageous $35-50 corkage fees of some "destination" restaurants. An upscale Italian trattoria...I just had to "Blogger Blog This." Way too funny of a post from our friends at Wine-Knows Travel.
Enjoy!

I'm A Big Fan of Wine-Knows Travel . . .
I love the folks at Wine-Knows Travel!
I'm big fans of theirs. We've joined them on food & wine tours in 2005 (Avignon, Southern/Northern Rhone, Burgundy, Alsace, Champagne), and 2008 (Bordeaux, St. Emilion, through the Dordogne Valley to Colliure). Both were great food and wine trips with lots of educational experiences.
I'm so pleased to see them launch their blog: Wine-Knows: Fine Wine & Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler.
Check it out!

Google Hotel Finder
Nice feature!
Google Hotel Finder lets you search for U.S. hotels in a given city by date, location on a map, price, hotel class, and user rating.
I especially like the capability to expand or limit the geographic area to search by dragging the boundaries of the search area "shape."
Very cool.

North Carolina Ranks 9th in US Wine Production
Who would've guessed.
We just came back from a visit to North Carolina. During our stay there, we learned that:
"North Carolina is home to more than 100 wineries. The number of wineries has more than quadrupled since 2001. The industry has two focuses — native muscadine grapes and European-style vinifera grapes" (http://www.visitncwine.com/)

Great news, Tiger Woods Expected for PGA Championship.I'm really excited about his return.
I certainly follow him for the drama, Caddie Choice Serves as Window Into Woods’s Thinking. But mostly, I'd like to see him return to his competitive form.
Go Tiger!

That Rascally Fox
Played golf today at Sharp Park Golf Course in Pacifica, CA.
This bold little fox stole the ball off the tee from Allan, someone in our playing group.
When it was my turn, I had to throw an orange ball off to the side to distract it. Gotta love nature!
