Short Post Today – Spencer Arrives Soon

 

My son Spencer will be arriving in the next day or 2 and I have been scouting out restaurants with dramatic settings.  There seems to be something imposing that calls for your attention.  In this picture you see the golden globe ontop of the lantern at the top of the rotunda.  Somewhere between these settings and the Duomo is a round circle painted on the bricks fixing where the golden globe ended after being hit by lightening January 27, 1601.

Another perfect spoon for Italian Zuppa.

I got up this morning and went down to the Mercato (market central).  There is one vendor that makes hundreds of these breads every day.  They are wonderful.

Looks like the Heil’s have invited the Diehls over for dinner.

I finally had an opportunity to sit down and have a visit with the watercolor artist, Giuseppe.  He was a very interesting guy.  His first question to me was do I like Trump or Biden.  With questions like that it does not take long to get to the heart of matters.
