I absolutely LOVE the use of some photos of you enjoying your visit. A big marketing plus in my eyes!
I LOVE THIS! It's like Lenn-a-palooza! I've mentioned this before, but the new pics of you are GREAT! I feel like I know you even better by seeing new sides of you. And I love a good winery, so next time I get to DC, maybe I will need to meet you there for a glass of wine and a visit.
Irene. I hope so. I've never done it before this summer. Actually, I'm having a blast getting "into" everything that I would normally just write about.
I do love adventure.
Lenn, Love seeing you in this envionment. How much tasting did you do? Great photos and the pink is perfect.
Thanks for always sharing such good information.
Steve. I'm on a roll. I'm going skeet shooting next and you know I'll have some shots.
Margaret. It's all just one big adventure.
Hi, Lenn:
I notice you're either sitting or leaning on something in all your photos. Good wine, huh?! :)
What a great idea for a post. I love wine tasting and touring vineyards.
Cheers,
Robin
How beautiful! I love good wine and beautiful vineyards.
Robin. HA. I had these hats that keep going on and off. Plays havoc with your hair.
Hi Lenn, I also love these photos of your visit to Breaux Vineyards. Great Localism post!
Lenn- I absolutely love seeing you in the photos, so approachable and friendly:) Katerina

Lenn,
So nice to see you out and about! You are now not just an online cheerleader for the area, but one in person as well!
Tina in Virginia
Lenn, I remember a time when you swore you would never take ab nother photo. Now........we see you every where!!! Good for you. The photos are a really nice touch to your articles. Makes me want to by a house from the nice lady.
Lenn, I'm loving the pictures! I'm also thinking this could provide a great weekend road trip for me and Sweetie!
Lenn
I really enjoyed this post. Lately, I've developed a passion for local wines and artisan cheeses (northern harford and cecil counties) often using my days off to visit the producers. We need to compare notes.
Cheers!
Ed Ryb
I'd love to have one of those big barrels!
I love your personal stories and visits to areas of interest Lenn! You are the essence of... reality.
Hi Lenn
Sounds like a fun way to spend the day, and a few samples would go a long way.
Good luck and success.
Lou Ludwig
Lenn - you are becoming quite the model now. I'd love to go wine tasting too :)
Lenn, This is the first time I've seen the new photos! Great addition to your already wonderful blog post. We have many wineries here in Washington state, but I've never bothered to visit. They look like a lot of fun, maybe I'll tour one soon?
Love all the photos of you Lenn, really brings life to post about the vineyards. You look content. :-))
I'm absolutely loving these photos of you in this post as well as the previous posts. They are very clear. Just the style I like. Whose taking these pictures for you? What camera are you using?
I like it Lenn! I want pics of you fishing!
Lenn,
Breaux sounds very French. Was it a French colony or what is the origin of this?
And wow, the comment from the Wineries, that's priceless
Touring vineyards - brings back memories of the week between school ending and graduation and the challenge of seeing how many NY wineries we could visit in a day. Ah, but that's a story for another time ;-)
Marilyn. I can't wait to read about those adventures.
Jon. American all the way.
Amanda. See: Fishing at Lake Burke.
Loreena. Thanks. I love photos. Sometimes it's hard to be in them.
Brad. Thanks. It's fun.
Brett. Thanks. I'm getting in as much of my area as I can for the summer.
Petra. Loudoun County soil is very good for growing wine grapes. I don't know about Florida.
Lou. A long way indeed.
Sally. Thanks. I'm bringing our area to life.
Steve. The wine making rooms were absolutely fascinating.
Ed. Oh my! Now I need to find some cheese.
Patricia. This is a wonderful friendly interesting place, this Loudoun County.
Bryant. What a wonderful idea.
Tina. Thanks. I love the area. Always have.
Loudoun Wineries. Thanks for stopping by. I post all of my articles to Twitter. I'll get more photos. I have my eye on a Vineyard in historic Waterford.
Katerina. Thanks. I'm glad it turned out that way.
Lourdes. Thanks. I love Localism. Gets us out into the neighborhoods.
Hi Lenn - In recent years I hear more and more about the great Virginia vinyards and the wines they produce. Being a Californian, I have enjoyed visiting many of our fine vinyards too. Looks like you got an interesting tour!
Lenn, I never knew of your love of wines or is it just wineries you care for?
Let's finish this week strong,
Paul
Susan. Of course California is famous for it's wines and wineries. Virginia is growing in popularity. Loudoun County leads VA for wineries.
Paul. I get many requests for information about vinyards. I thought I'd take a tour and connect with a few. It was fun. It was even better when I was given a tour through the wine making rooms. Fascinating.
Boy Lenn, you are getting busy. Fishing one day and now out and about tasting the local wine. Way to go girl!
Lenn,
It looks like you were having a very enjoyable day. This sounds like a nice stop along the way to break up the stress of searching for a home.
Gabe. It's summer. I'm having an adventure. August is a slow real estate time here with so many on vacation. I'm concentrating on local attractions of which I have familiarity to enhance my Internet presence.
Don. Very enjoyable indeed.
My father is a big wine taster. When My mother was living they spent much time in Europe traveling and touring wineries. I sent him this post. P.S thanks for the advice and I followed it to the T.
Laura. Thanks. I was beginning to wonder if you read the comments.
I'm sure that a tour of wineries in Europe is an adventure. Vineyards in Virginia go back 20-50 years at most. Think about the history of European vineyards and wineries.
All the time i lived in VA and MD I never realized there were vineyards. Actually read Wine for Dummies and started touring vineyards a few years ago. I guess beer was more intriguing in my youth!
Gary. One cannot sell real estate in rural areas of Virginia and not run into directional signs to vineyards.
Lenn the photos look great. It is amazing how diverse Loudoun County is. My son that lives in Washington DC went rafting in Loudoun Heights the other day, and he commented "Loudoun county is just so beautiful. It is!
Hi Lenn, You are on a roll! I am really enjoying "going with you" to all the places to see and things to do in your area.
Jim. I was at Loudoun Heights on Tuesday. I was going to climb the hill onto the bluff above and get some photos of the river from the overlook. I decided the hill was a bit too much since I'm just recovering from a broken toe. There were about 20 "floaters" parked on the side of the road.
Mary. I've got one planned for next week, weather permitting.
A day of fishing, then wine tasting. Doesn't get much better than that, does it Lenn?
You've added a great personal touch. Just out of curiosity was this done for fun or to increase business or both?
Glad to see your having a great time.
Absolutely beautiful, Lenn. And fun to see you "in person" at the winery. Visiting wineris and enjoying what they have to offer is a true pleasure of wine. And here in CA we are certainly not lacking in optons.
Jeff
Any. It most definately does not. It's been a blast.
Alan. I always have fun. I thought it would be interesting to consumers to get to know the agent that's going to sell them their next home.
Jeff. You most certainly do not lack for wineries in CA. Goodness, you're world famous. Who knows? Perhaps one day Virginia will be too. I'll try to help.
I can tell you had a wonderful time......great pictures!
