Abbiamo fatto un piccolo giro in Toscana e Umbria*
*Ok, so we didn&#8217;t really go fishing, but we did go on a little road trip through Tuscany and Umbria this past weekend.
We have been meaning to get back to Lucca, where we spent 2 months in 1993, and up until now we just never made it. [...]]]></description>

Three Cheers for January Snow
I saw the snow from a distance right around the middle of December up on the mountain tops surrounding Foligno.  It was magical.  To my great delight I actually got to hear the crunch under my feet when we went to Colfiorito for a hike on the Epiphany, last [...]]]></description>

In case you were wondering &#8230; 
 how I&#8217;ve been spending my time &#8211; other than picking olives, and eating bruschetta drenched in green oil;  I do sit down at my table to draw/paint/collage on a daily basis. Some pieces are purely invented, some are of actual places, and then there are those that [...]]]></description>

A weekend spent working outside, harvesting olives
This is how friends hang out together in Italy.  When it&#8217;s time to harvest the olives on your property, you call all your friends, and out they come to climb trees, rake olives, and spend the day in conversation under the fog or sun. Saturday started out foggy [...]]]></description>

A November Rose blooms in Villa Guardia
Early November presented us with a grey weekend for traveling, none-the-less, we enjoyed a trip north to visit our friend Giovanna in Villa Guardia (near Como).  It was one of those full immersion weekends in which we spent continuous hours doing our best to communicate in Italian, and [...]]]></description>

Robert Broekman :: 13.09.25 &#8211; 21.10.11
In Italy obituaries are plastered on the walls throughout town. They strike me as operatic in nature, great big announcements for everyone to see.  My father didn&#8217;t want a service, or even an obituary &#8211; ha voluto niente. None-the-less, I am compelled to say something, to pay tribute in [...]]]></description>

This morning: an exercise in Italian bureaucracy.
Monday we spent almost 3 hours at the Agenzia delle Entrate, for our Codice Fiscale &#8211; which is something like a tax ID number, and will allow us to get another mobile phone, and is also evidently necessary for our Permesso di Soggiorno.  Getting a Permesso di Soggiorno, [...]]]></description>
