Italian Summer

I am a PERFECT example of one who makes a resolution only to not keep it. But now I am officially on vacation at home with time to write, and so I will. I just wish the downloading of photos worked better on this site, but I am hopeful things have been improved since January. (And they are, as I just posted these three photos much more efficiently than in the past. Woohoo!)

Third summer for this climbing rose.

Happy summer, everyone. It has been a long winter and why did I ever think it would never be hot again?

Happy New Year!

Ciao from Monzuno! One of my resolutions this year is to spend less time on facebook and to start posting again on this site. Not a strong writer, but I do miss expressing myself here and posting photos. Along with speaking in Italian more, I 'll work hard to maintain this promise.
