A beautiful hike in Umbria
Yesterday we hiked from Spello, along the old Roman aqueduct, to Collepino &#8211; a tiny little medieval &#8220;borgo&#8221; on the side of Mt. Subasio, completely surrounded by il parco regionale del monte Subasio. It was perfect hiking weather &#8211; bright and sunny, clear blue skies, with a nice cool breeze up [...]]]></description>

Firenze
must be one of the most photogenic cities around. We have been lucky to stopover for a night several times during these months in Italy.  I&#8217;m going to miss being able to do that after we return to Maine at the end of this month.
At left: the lion guarding the entrance to la chiesa [...]]]></description>

Giant purple stone vase &#8230;

Oggi e la giornata internazionale della donna.
As stated in Wikipedia: it&#8217;s a day to remember the social, political, and economic conquests of women, as well as the discriminations and violence that are still in evidence against women in many parts of the world. In Italy the day is celebrated with Mimosa flowers.  And, right [...]]]></description>

Firmly locked
Italians are notoriously good at defense &#8211; just look at all those walled cities up on the hilltops. Then there are the fences &#8211; many with a barking dog running the length of the property as you walk past. And then, the variety of doors, with locks and chains of all strengths and sizes.
I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

We are stamped, sealed, and officially here
After  another trip to the questura (police station), and two more sets of fingerprints, we received our official &#8220;papers&#8221; (actually something that resembles a fancy credit card that sparkles).  We have finally been granted permission to stay. What a relief! 
The weather, meanwhile,  has been lousy: [...]]]></description>

*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>
