Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Buon Viaggio Celebration. Planning Underway! RSVP to gabrianam [AT] gmail [DOT] com for the address! The watercolor background of this graphic invitation was painted by Mama Jude herself during a previous trip to Venice, Italy. You can read about her past adventures and see more of her gorgeous work on her blog, Giuddittalia. When she's feeling up to it, Jude will also blog about our upcoming special trip. And both of our blogs will feature her beautiful artwork! Links to this post.

Our delightful first days. Old ladies love us! September 18, 2013 · 5:43 pm. From our new front door to our old… or you CAN go home again! Next we came upon the coke bottle shoes that I saw in 2009 and was so fascinated by. Still am. This time I have more pictures and the name of the artist, Luigi Bona. We also saw several of his pieces in a gallery a few days later, with more of a picture and story about the artist. Here are some of my favorites. And here is a link to see more of his work. Hi Linda, I&#...

Secret passages we’ve found | Giuditta in Italia
https://giudittalia.wordpress.com/2013/09/27/secret-passages-weve-found
Old ladies love us! September 27, 2013 · 8:22 am. Secret passages we’ve found. I brought my stool to draw the church, but got distracted by this door! We’ve been keeping our eyes open and exploring sottoportegos along our paths. These are covered passages between buildings, which we have found lead us to surprising places. The mysterious tower that is always closed to the public, but advertises its hours in case it is open! The drawing I made of a door that I liked in the campo is at the top of this post.

Our delightful first days | Giuditta in Italia

From our new front door to our old… or you CAN go home again! September 14, 2013 · 3:14 pm. Our delightful first days. We’ve been here for a few days. Abby is a big hit, putting it mildly. Every few steps we take, someone stops us and comments on the dog. Fellow travelers or Venetians, it doesn’t matter. Many tell us they have Bostons at home or have grown up with them. Many tell us about their dogs, and even share photos. Everyone wants to pet her! Tagged as Boston Bull terrier. 4 responses to “. Let...

From our new front door to our old… or you CAN go home again! Secret passages we’ve found →. September 24, 2013 · 7:11 am. Old ladies love us! We met two Australian women at SoSu gelato and when they seemed confused by the variety, we helped them decide which gelato to order. We told them our favorites. They thanked us outside where we were leaning against the building enjoying our treat. We never make it too far away! From our new front door to our old… or you CAN go home again! 5 responses to “.

Nosy Parker: My Amazing, Memorable Mama
http://nosyparkerblog.blogspot.com/2012/07/my-amazing-memorable-mama.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. My Amazing, Memorable Mama. My Mama is just adorable. She glows with an inner excitement for life, even amid debilitating cancer treatments. I realize I'm biased as her daughter, but in truth she's always been "cool" (though very strict when I was a kid). She's done so many things and lived such a varied and rich life, in which I feel honored to have had a role. Grandma and Me, photo taken by Mama. Was a pioneer in the tech world as an early member of The WELL. Led an Elders Camp ...

Newer posts →. September 27, 2012 · 2:33 pm. A two-tone blue with lovely flowers in the window. We saw one rebel house. It was pure white, with no flowers in front and no hanging flap. A white house seemed so weird in that setting. The other thing we noticed was that some of the two-tone houses were painted with tape put down first to make clean lines. But there were many that seemed to be painted freehand. It just added to the atmosphere! All the pictures were taken by my tripmate Diane Rauchwerger.
