She gave the car a little more gas coming out of a gentle curve in the road, and laughed as the wind whipped her hair across her face. On both sides of the road were vineyards as far as the eye could see; rows and rows of grapes, winding their way up and around the gentle hills.
In the spring and summer, the vines were green; but now the leaves that were left were red and brown. The grapes had been harvested, and the new vintage celebrated. Just a few weeks ago, the roads had been clogged with tourists drinking their way through the Harvest Wine Weekend; today it was completely empty and hers alone.
Another perfect day.

Cynthia, that is one stunning creation!! You are so talented, in design and craftsmanship. Truly amazing!
Don't you just love perfect days!!!
Your creation is simply gorgeous...
If that is your hand, may I ask how you work with your nails??? Since I began making jewelry three years ago I can't keep nails...they get in the way and break all the time!!! :0)
Cheers
It is my hand, but those are not my nails. They are stuck on with double-sided tape! My nails are quite short and rather ragged.
Outstnding work!! I've seen it in Use the Muse III! congratulations!!

I wondered about the nails, too! ;-) And that is a stunning piece!
oHHHHH!me he quedado impresionada de que la he visto,es preciosa,me ha recordado a las serpientes cuando se enroscan ,pero sin duda tu joya es mucho mas hermosas que ellas.
Un trabajo impresionante.
Awesome!!!! That is totally fabulous. You go girl! And you cracked me up about the nails...I need to invest in some false ones too.
AMAAAAAAAAAAZING!!!
This one... wow. Really. Rare do I see amazing bracelets like this.
Is it a bracelet? Your creation is so extraordinary! Very creative.
Can I feature your creation in www.handmade-jewelry-club.com?
It's a bracelet with rings attached. It's my interpretation of a hand flower bracelet.
