Claire, I do miss your company

A day at work - Italy Oct 09

I know it's not a bad life when this is what one of my days at work looks like. These pics are in fact from Northern Italy - Langhe Wine region. Visited the area in Oct 2009. Hard to believe I was working - tasting close on 50 wines of the region in the morning. Was magnificent visiting all the wine farms and being surrounded by such beauty. I have now decided I want to live in Italy!

Quick Boulangerie stop

Jon and I were recently over in the South of France. We traveled just about everywhere. It was an incredible holiday. This is the first of lots of posts of the trip
