Lunch in the Vineyards
Endless Summer


Herzlich Willkommen
A warm welcome
under the rose arbor

More roses
at the entrance gate

Wooden tables
and benches
in the courtyard
shaded by a
tall walnut tree

An oak barrel
and geraniums

More flowers
by the green painted fence

Red Gspritzter
for a thirsty soul

Echtes Wiener Schnitzel
und Vogerlsalat
Viennese breaded veal cutlet
and lamb's lettuce

at my table

Blue Lobelia
under the leafy canopy
of the walnut tree

Coffee
and a bite-sized
chocolate treat

  2. Oh, I remember this one -- that green lattice and the blue lobelia on the yellow background are wonderful!

  3. Amelia,
    exactly what it seems right now: the weather is such that the illusion of summer never ending comes easy. ;-)

    Charles Gramlich,
    a beautiful moment, just before one steps down in the cool shade of the courtyard.

    Vicki Lane,
    I remember the moment when I reached for my camera and shot this image.

  4. Nice weather, pretty surroundings, flowers, good food, good wine...what else could a person want. Lovely.

  5. This endless summer is a dream for me now, in heavily rained-in London, and just what I need to see! And yesterday's poppies - stunning pictures, every one.

  8. My Blue Lobelia never came up this season, hmmm wonder if it took a boat to visit you;) The Viennese breaded veal cutlet looks fab, as does the drink, both the hot and the cold. Have a beauty of a weekend~

  12. I love the delicate pink roses (am planning an area in my garden for just one kind of pink rose) and I love the green window frame.
