Red

May 20, 2024

Bright red makes powerful statements

Calling all hummingbirds and cravers of fame

Standing out from the background crowd

This energy is ready to make strong moves

Bold and satisfying ideas are conjured up

Wearing the brightest of primary colors

The annual UFO Festival in McMinnville, Oregon attracts many folks who enjoy costumes. The event includes a street fair, dog costume contest, and a parade. It’s a full weekend of high class entertainment, no matter how one participates.

A good time for all ages and walks of life.

A weekend without political meaning of any kind!

Strawberry Season

Strawberry season floods my senses

Bright red berries fill the air with aroma

To send my appetite into a proper swoon

For the tantalizing moment I taste the fruit

Kramer Vineyards

May 16, 2024

In summer I live in rural Oregon, in the Willamette Valley. My neighbors make fantastic wines. My personal favorites are the sparkling wines made by the Kramer family. The vineyard is beautiful and makes the perfect place to picnic while we watch the grape crop mature. I visited yesterday to pick up my sparkling wine club allotment.

The vineyard and tasting room are in a secluded spot near our home. A warm welcome and a glass of wine greet the visitors. I love to take a stroll around the vines in all seasons. These sprouting plants will provide grapes for the alchemy of harvest and winemaking. It’s a spirit filled place.

I’m an enthusiastic member of the sparkling wine club at Kramer because it’s always fun to share these wines with friends. They make any party an elevated experience. These bubbles enhance virtually any gastronomy. Our company looks forward to being poured a glass of excellence.

If you are planning a visit to Oregon wine country be sure to include Kramer Vineyards for a special treat. They produce a variety of delicious wines.
