It's time to buy a new stufa/wood burning insert for our fireplace and finding one made entirely of cast iron is much harder than it used it to be! In between guests and dinners for a few locals we have been wrenchin' and sanding & staining! This weekends Palio in Piobbico will most likely be rained out - but it reminded us of the story of the one & only time we have been asked to participate in a local festival but I just couldn't respect the silence!

Thanks for listening!

From a 10 course fish feast at our farmhouse to pizza night with the oldies crew, guests and move to Italy workshops we have been busy! And when we have a bit of down time, we get a chance to visit a Rock n' BBQ festival, 50th wedding anniversary and a farmer's festival at the end of our road with mass and a procession with the Madonna. This is life in small town Italy in the summer - meals with friends and neighbors and tiny festivals that aren't what you think they will be!

Jason has his first visit to the eye doctor and freaks himself out, and Ashley shares the costs of a recent X-ray and MRI.
