Weekend in the Sanoma Valley, July 2018

During our 2018 trip to San Francisco, we spent a wonderful weekend in the Sanoma Valley, touring wineries, historical sites and the landscape.

Some of the highlights:

• The city of Petaluma, an old gold mining town that still had signs of the riches of gold, in many striking buildings.
• Petaluma State Historic Park - site of General Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo's 66,000-acre  working ranch between 1836-1846. 
• Wineries - Mantanza Creek, Mill Creek, DaVero and Ferrari-Carano
• Santa Rosa - home of Charles Schultz (creator of Peanuts)
• Healdsburg
• Lake Sanoma Overlook
• Sanoma City
