Mysterious object in Napa

The article was made for #monthlytopic. Let's join!

July topic is mysterious objects. See this:

I've found it in Napa town. Finally, I could not identify it. It's probably an artist's work. Please tell me if anyone knows.
 
 
Interestingly, as of March 2019, this object doesn't exist. 
 
  
I remembered the timeline function of Street View. AND...
 

Caption: May, 2012

 

Caption: May, 2014

 

Caption: April, 2016

The object existed between 2016 and 2014!!!

 

 
Finally, Napa is a great city. The street was beautiful and the food was delicious.

Please stop by before you go to Napa Valley. My favorite are followings:

I added a side story, thank you for request @MoniDi !!!
 
 
At that time, I was staying alone in Silicon Valley for several weeks because I had something to do. And I had time on Saturday so I went sightseeing in Napa Valley. The journey takes about two hours one way. I also love driving, so no problem. I had lunch in Napa Town on the way with a break.

Basically, I like to look for a shop without doing much research. I explore the city and enter a store according to my feeling. It may taste bad, but It is ok, everything becomes a memory :D. Then... I found a strange object while exploring the city.

I found a very cool car!!! It's my favorite photo in the day.
 
Caption: Cool car. Does anyone know this car?
 
After taking a nap in the car, I went to a winery in Napa Valley. I've come to realize a serious fact. I wanted to taste, but I came here by myself, so I can't. But... I just went there. The destination is Castello di Amorosa.

Castello di Amorosa is not only good at wine, but also its architecture is very enjoyable.

I couldn't drink wine, but I was happy to taste grape juice.
 
Caption: There is no alcohol.
 
I wanted to go to more wineries, but it timed out. I went back to a hotel. In the hotel, I didn't drink the wine I bought at the winery, but had anchor saison and chips to finish the day. (Actually, I prefer beer to wine. LOL)

Re: Mysterious object in Napa

@YutaE Thank you for sharing this interesting object with us. I think it looks like a flower. That spot might be a place for artists to show their work. You beat me again this month. I think I found a place to write about, stay tune!

共有とお題への投稿をしていただきありがとうございます!

ユニークで迫力あるオブジェクトですね、どうして撤去しちゃったんでしょう。そして、次はどんなオブジェクトが展示されるのでしょうね:-)

私はナパのワイン、特にカベルネ・ソーヴィニヨンを中心とした赤ワインが大好きなので、いつかツアーに参加しようと思っていました。その時にはご紹介していただいたお店もぜひ訪ねてみたいと思います。

Hello @YutaE ,

 

Thank you for sharing your photos, I wasn't aware of this object in Napa. How did you find it and do you know the story behind it? Do a lot of tourists visit this place?

 

I am curious to hear about your experience in Napa, like what did you try in the restaurant you visited. Tell us more about it.

Hi @Ant_Bad_Yogi ,

I see. It certainly looks like a flower. And July has just begun. Even if it is not in the neighborhood, there must be a mysterious object. I'm waiting for your post!

 

@HiroyukiTakisawa さん、

コメントありがとうございます!書いたところはオススメです。是非お立ち寄りください 🙂 カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨンを使ったワインは、追記したワイナリーにもあったと、記憶しています。こちらも是非チェックください。

@YutaE Thanks for sharing about your journey in Napa and this cool work of art! That's really fun that it changes every few years so next time you go to visit you can experience a completely different mysterious object. 😉
