Michael, Sorry this is so long in coming. Here is a smattering of the 700 pictures of Hannah & Willie’s travels in Italy. They are in no particular order and she has not had time to comment on them. We need to find the time to sift through them and put them into recognizable albums […]

The pier detective Adam deduced. Not pictured – the gate with the no trespassing sign. Last night’s Salsa class. **************** Both Matthew and Diane are casino dabblers. Diane’s up or down, I don’t remember which, less than a dollar. Matt, federally funded by his dad, left the poker machines, our first night here, after four […]

You know your life’s hard when the major event of the day is waiting for the sun to set. As you can see, lot’s of promise tonight as the sun neared the water, but  then the big guy walked out of the water and warned me that lately the sun’s been obscured by low riding […]

Our beach and our hotel. Dear Adam, Doesn’t the word peripatetic come from Aristotle’s practice of teaching and walking? Not driving and teaching? Peter and I walked up and down the beach and I walk to the bar for Diane’s alcoholess frozen umbrella drinks, but that’s about the extent of my wanderings, with the exception […]

  Dear pesky godson, Yes, I did follow your suggestion and I slipped into the water after midnight.  Comparing it to all those Vineyard dips : Like the Vineyard, I was alone in the water. Unlike the Vineyard,  I didn’t have to worry about tripping on a skunk, and that was a relief. However, the […]

This place is paradise for me because the photo-ops are unlimited. I get my saturated, vibrant colors and uncluttered backgrounds, and, sometimes, willing subjects. In this photo, I wanted her and I wanted the boat in the background. She faced me as I knelt down low to the water, but she must have moved as […]

I saw the man in red in the distance and we may not have been part of his circuit,  but he was coming our way. “What are you selling?” I shouted. “Aloe from Aruba, pure Aruban Aloe?” “Can I drink it?” “Sure you can, it cures bronchitis, and sunburn and skin rashes and … .” […]

Last night’s dinner view. We were all up just after 4 AM this morning, stumbling past one another, as Susan prepared to drive back to Minnesota, while Diane, Peter, Matthew and I hurried to stuff our car to get to generous Dan’s house so he could taxi us to Logan. We flew out on time […]

Hi KT, We finally got out of the US on BA. (23 h of travelling yesterday!) We’re writing frim Vernazza, having taken the wong boat (but that’s all right it was cheaper) We got in a line at the harbor, thinking we were going to RioMaggiore. All these 5’Terre towns look alike’ — beautiful! Today […]
