Loni points the way to Sonoma

I grew up in a family that likes to mimic statues, sign posts and paintings.

I grew up in a family that likes to mimic statues, sign posts and paintings. It sure makes for a more interesting photograph, no?

It seems like Loni too had such an upbringing, or at least she is practicing.

Here she is in the heart of Sonoma wine country, at St. Francis Winery & Vineyards. Perhaps she is pointing to Wine Bloggers’ Conference 2009. Or one of the media tastings she will be attending also this week. It’s hard to say. Regardless, at Stark Insider this is officially SONOMA WEEK!

Note to Loni: the statue is not wearing sunglasses…
