Eat, Print, Love

Lauren has returned to California from her scuba diving in the British Virgin Islands and we hear is headed off to lead more Backroads Bicycle Tours. Lisa and Clarke survived their first camping experience at Pt. Reyes with style and without water. Venice is still afloat, Rome still eternal and Corciano remains the green heart of Umbria.

We just found out that Slow Food (they call it Kilometro Zero) will be part of the Corciano Festival - 15 days of art, poetry, and reenactments of medieval pageantry. And we will be here to experience it!!!!

For me, the experience this year is really Eat, Print, Love. Today we made a book box for our "print exchange" - something like a cookie exchange, where each one of us does a complete edition and then we each get to take home a set of original prints. People in Corciano are already beginning to inquire about purchasing prints, paintings and commissions.

Chuck is being a Prince-Professor and the ever-gracious driver, counselor and best-dressed tourist. He continues to impress the locals with his Italian, sense of style and height. He, however, completely FAILED the Leonardo DaVinci's Vitruvian Man Contest - simply tooooo tall.
