SEPT-- ITALY, HERE WE COME



Our timing was perfect for the 'vendemia'.... and putting the grapes through the machine and into huge barrels to start fermenting.



From the vine to the barrel.......




When company comes, it's not complete until they see Pompei. It must have been a beautiful city.


Here we are on the Amalfi coast and stopping at one of our favorite spots. From the Hotel San Pietro with Positano in the background.

Part of Naples, going by an old fort wall up to what's known as Posilipo


FINALLY!!! After a year and a half back from living in Italy, we are headed back for a visit. Charles, who is with NOVACES and is responsible for Bob joining them, and Irene Mount took their 2 week vacation to come with us. They had never been there and had not had the opportunity to come over while we were living there. We wanted to show them around and show them 'our' Italy with only a touch of the 'tourist' places. After they left, we had 2 more weeks of enjoying our 'home away from home' with little reunions and local friends.
