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
Comments Live I have been off the Hill for a while because I have after much prayer, and conversations with my children, have decided to down size. This has been a heart wrenching decision for me as with many folks my age. Our place( my late Bob) and myself built this retirement home on a beautiful lake in the mts. of Tn. and lived here for 31 years. My health has not been the best for a couple of years and our 4 acres and house has gotten too much for me to handle. It is so hard to get hired help one can depend on, so it is time for younger folks to take over the joy of living here. I will be writing a blog occasionally to record my progress. Hope this coming week is a good one for you. Anne
Good day to you. We have had only light scattered showers in our area but close by has had some strong storms. Hope your week has been fine & you're able to enjoy the weekend. Got all of the yard work done early yesterday morning so will be ready to take it easy this weekend.Take care & hope you stay safe.......George
Good morning to you & hoping all of the severe storms have not hit you . So far we are in good shape in our area . Counting down with only 6 days of school left . Going to get the yard done early this morning before it gets too hot & scattered showers expected . Have a beautiful day.....George
