we have been away.
one morning we were in vermont,
and the next morning we were looking out of our bathroom
window in florence, italy.
and then a bit later we were watching the sunset from
our rented villa in the chianti region of tuscany.
we splurged on a wonderful trip to italy with dear friends
from our days living in old san juan, puerto rico...
35 years ago!
celebrating batman's retirement, our 40th anniversary
and a reunion with our pals,
we bought tickets, found a house sitter, packed lightly
and headed to europe.
i'm still processing the beauty we saw,
the conversations we shared
and the experiences we had over our 10 day visit.
One of the most wonderful takeaways from our trip was the total immersion we experienced, nestling into the sense of place we found in Italy. I hope to share that with you here, on "Tuscan Tuesdays".
I'm committed to being here at sew and sow life more often, with bits of sewing and gardening and pausing to savor the season, so check back soon if you would like to ramble with me. Finding joy and hope and Light are on the agenda.
It's good to be back. xo

ReplyDeleteMy heart is brimming for you. I look forward to seeing you here more often and with your shining example hope to be more present myself. Joy abundant and then some. And now our favorite season is upon us as well. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThe thought of you waking in Florence, made me smile. What a wonderful way to celebrate your milestones.
