In the past few days I have made a lot of progress on my book since I decided to focus on it, and I sat down to write whenever I had the chance. One of the great things for me about writing about something I love is that it allows me to relive so much of what I am writing about and recapture the same sense of enthusiasm and excitement that I experienced when it was happening.

It almost makes me feel as if I am back in Italy again. Writing also makes me remember more details about an event and I feel like I want to put them down on paper, so that the memory will never go away. While doing some of the book writing these past few days I also reviewed my thousands of photos to jog my memory about some details in certain places and I found some that I decided to post on this blog.They are a mix from many different places in Italy.

Italy is an amazing place. Even an ashtray is a commentary on the beauty of twigs and bits. Perhaps a reflection on the end of all of us eventually, smokers or not. I liked the roof; out of nails, use decorative rock to hold the shingles down. Very clever until high winds ramp up! I think it was done for fashion. Beauty first, taste good second and everything else much further down the list of things to do in Italy.
