Poll:

Where was this photo taken?

Last week's mystery photo fooled few of you, a fact that surprised me a bit.

However, 73% of you correctly identified the photo as showing Sokol Blosser Winery near Dundee, Ore, while just 11% guessed it was Bethel Heights Winery in the Eola-Amity Hills. Meanwhile, 10% thought it showed Montinore Estate near Forest Grove, Ore., and just wondered if it was Benton-Lane Winery near Monroe, Ore.

This week's photo, taken by Matthew Rutledge of Austin, Texas, was found on Flickr.com. Though the warm weather we've enjoyed in the past several weeks has provided little snow, this image still fits our winter theme and should provide a decent challenge for you.
