Recently, I spent a relaxing time at Blacksmith Square in Livermore. Blacksmith Square is a little section that has a couple of small wineries, a brewery, an olive oil shop and an artisan shop. I found it by accident (after driving past a couple of times) but I am glad I did:

| One of the brick buildings of the square. These buildings were from when the area was a big blacksmith plant |
One thing I liked was all the colors and plants around:
The few shops were good. I loved the artists shop:

| Got to love those who are creative (above and below): |
And there were some tastings done:

| Some craft beer and red wine |
 |
| White Wine |
And some music:
Blacksmith Square in Livermore was a great find and a nice relaxing way to spend the day.
