Are you ready for ANGELS and DEMONS? It is the upcoming movie starring Tom Hanks, directed by Ron Howard, from the book by Dan Brown Tom plays the same character he played in The DaVinci Code, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon who in Angels and Demons, works to solve a murder and prevent a terrorist act against the Vatican. I loved the DaVinci Code, both the book and the movie, and I loved the book Angels and Demons. Therefore, I am really looking forward to this movie! It starts here in the US on May 15th. If you can't wait, Google the movie and let it direct you to the official puzzel contest. You might win a trip to Rome for the Premier! The trip is for 2, and I am available!

Somerset Ridge Vineyard

Art in the Vines, Summer 2009

We are working on our summer exhibit, Art in the Vines. As you can see in the photo, there is a large wooden post at the end of each row, and I think a perfect place to hang paintings. Kansas City has a history of some great Art Fairs, the Plaza and the Brookside, which have grown so large that it is difficult to find a local artist's work. That won't be the case at Art in the Vines. With the help and advice of Becky Pashia, artist and co-owner of ARTichokes in Leawood, we will give you the opportunity to enjoy the creations of artists from our own area.
The rolling hills of Somerset Ridge offer plenty of space and opportunity to have a special weekend event. We are planning on a Saturday, with Sunday being the designated rain date. There are plans being made for live music, and of course, the Tasting Room will be open giving everyone the chance to try our wines.

The hours for the Art in the Vines will be 12:00 noon to 5:oopm. Look for further information, as it is available, here on my blog.
