Geralyn and I visited the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi. The basilica, which was begun in 1228, is built into the side of a hill and comprises two churches (known as the Upper Church and the Lower Church) and a crypt, where the remains of the saint are interred.

We visited Fattoria il Poggio, a farmhouse in Montecarlo in the province of Lucca in Tuscany. The farm, rooted in Tuscany and managed by the Rossi family since 1963, welcomes visitors from all over the world. The farm produces wine and extra virgin olive oil. Inside the farm is a restaurant open for lunch and dinner and welcomes you with the best dishes, obviously accompanied by their wine and their oil!
Geralyn took this video as we traveled through the canals of Venice on a gondola! Geralyn normally doesn't do the videos but she wanted to capture me and the view of the canals from her perspective.
Dropping by to say hi.. Hope you are doing well and having a great weekend so far. It will be over before we know it. Hopefully you are enjoying some nice weather as well. Our weather has been like a yo-yo, was in the 90's then dropped to upper 60's Thurs, Fri, Sat. Now starting today will be back up in the 90's and 100 by Tuesday. Guess summer is here. Anyway, hope you enjoy the rest of your day and have a great week~~ hugs, debijo
Geralyn and I were fascinated by the skill of this glass artist. And, he was a very nice fellow! So, if you are interested in the designing of glass art, you'll enjoy watching this video from Murano, Italy.
Venetian glass is thought to have been made for over 1,500 years, and production has been concentrated on the Venetian island of Murano since the 13th century. Today Murano is known for its art glass, but it has a long history of innovations in glass-making in addition to its artistic fame—and was Europe's first major glass-making center.
A happy weekend to you & hope the was good to you . We were lucky the last go around of storms skipped by us but close by had some strong damaging winds & heavy rain. This coming Monday we made a lifetime vow to each other 63 years ago and we know that as the years go by our time together grows shorter but daily our love for each other grows even more. Have a terrific weekend my friend & take care.....George
Geralyn and I returned from Italy late last night. I will add additional pictures and videos from time to time. We had a great time but it is also nice to be back home.
Good day to you & happy hump day. Last day of school so will be going easy for awhile. Been having trouble with the internet going out & having to restart almost daily & causing our tv to go out or buffer a lot as we now have Roku & Hulu instead of cable so went to the provider store got a new modem & have had no problems since , Guess the other one just got tired but it was pretty old , Hope the week is doing good for you so enjoy the rest of it & stay happy..........George
