August / September



Deborah is pictured here washing my hands in the water fountain in Saint Peters square. I have touched the holy water. Don't worry I will bless you all the next time I see you.












In Venice they don't have streets so everything is a boat, here is an ambulance boat. We also saw a DHL boat, UPS boat, taxi boat, police boat and the famous gondola boat.









Pictured here is my mother and I in Tuscany. We visited the cities of Siena and San Gimignano and of course grape vineyards, the ones we are standing in front of are for Chanti. Our picture is being taken by our, and only our, guide for the day Danielle. He was an excellent buy from Costco and it was great to have a local driving us around and telling us where to go.






The last week of August my mother and I traveled to Italy. We had planned a private visit with the pope but at the last minute he cancelled ... something about blessing an orphanage. I guess the ball is in his court. We had a great time but the plane ride is aweful. It takes days and to recover takes days too.
