Well, today was a special day. Especially if you have any Sicilian ancestry. We went to Francis Ford Coppola's Winery in Geyserville, CA. He has 2 estate wineries. One in Geyserville and the other in Nappa. At the one we went to he has on display memorabilia from his films and his awards. Also wine! We drank his wine and toured the estate house. It is also a resort where you can stay. A really nice place. Below are pics of the estate, The Godfather Movies, A Tucker automobile and prop for the movie and some of his awards. Tucker is a really neat car. Only 51 ever built in 1949 and only 47 are known to remain. Coppola owns 2 of them. Having worked in the Auto Industry for 30 years I can appreciate this car. Too bad the big 3 at the time forced him into bankruptcy.
