Terra Bianco of San Fedele Winery and our art show.

We painted beautiful views, had a nice lunch and then got ready for the end of the week show!

We will miss the other group with Kathy Rennel Forbes! They were from GA and have been so much fun to share the week with at San Fedele. We will stay in touch and be together again soon.

Enjoy the pics!
