- Amelia Earhart
And so our adventure begins....
We are off, planes trains and automobiles ahead, roads to drive, sights to see and experiences to log. Mary and I have stuffed our bags loosely to allow for a return trip loaded with treasure. Papi and Cat are in the safe care of Jane Longo. I alerted ADT that Jane would be at our house, so that if she triggers the alarm she does not get hauled off to the pokey. I
have heavily salted the garden with Sluggo to thwart the takeover while we are gone by the gargantuan snails who I know are lurking and hoping to do the backstroke in our hot tub.
So where will we be? The greatest adventures are borne up in mystery. And while we have a plan, our agenda is open enough to allow for stops along the way to absorb the flavors. We have always trod the road less travelled, and while this one has had many feet on it before, hopefully our turn will give it a new look - like a photograph not of a famous wall, but of a single brick handmade centuries ago.
Stay tuned.

i rather like the idea of slugs doing backstrokes in the hottub and have already driven down to your house, snuck in the back yard, lifted the lid off the hottub, put in some snails and taken some video. this will be my new public art piece 'triomphe des escargots' airing on hdtv this summer.
Mary and Dan,
I am following you along on your trip and can imagine your steps as I walked through many of the same places.
I attended the Vivaldi concert at the church and loved it.
Venice is so special and I cannot wait to return.
Love,
Rebecca
