Perhaps one of the most amazingly yummy chocolate raspberry tortes I've ever tasted… in honor of my father-in-law's 80th birthday… brought from Ramone's Bakery in Eureka, CA. http://ramonesbakery.com/
Sorry, +Kalebra Kelby, I simply was incapable of saving any for you…

Howell Mountain Road winds it's way from St Helena in the Napa Valley up the hill about 1500 ft above the valley floor…to the little community of Angwin, where I make my home.
…and yes, we do have a lovely castle nearby… it's worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood…. +Castello di Amorosa
…a quick snap on the way home from a Safeway run 😉
+Annette Biggers & +Karen Hutton, are you up for storming the castle?

A #blastfromthepast from about 1934. Grandpa liked to shoot both still and 16mm movies.
My mom is on the right, with big sister cradling little sister.
This pic also includes a bit of play with the very cool new Nik Analog Efex Pro plugin that is now part of the fabulous +Nik Photography collection.
+Blast From The Past is curated by +Cheryl Cooper +Mark Rodriguez & +Isabelle Fortin

Many 'nobodies' like me have been offered our own custom G+ URL…
… but what about +Karin Nelson +Sandra Parlow & +Tamara Pruessner ? Ignored, left out in the cold, second-class G+ citizens!!!!
So… until they are allowed to join the ranks of the rest of us who have managed to get our fancy shmancy URL, like http://google.com/+DaveBell , I have changed my cover photo to my G+ User ID.
Please use this ID number when referring to me in a post (or casual conversation)… remember.. mine is the one that ends with a 2
+Vic Gundotra are you listening?
(Ok.. I know a roll-out may take a few days 😉

There are many trees on our property, but among my favorites are the Redwood just outside my office window, and the Sugar Maple at the end of the house (both planted by the original owner in 1965)
The maple leaves are starting to cover the lawn… and the semi-annual dropping of the Redwood fronds have already carpeted the backyard, the roof, and filled my gutters…
