This is the name plaque for the place we stayed while in Italy. Below is where we barbequed while there. It's an interesting device. First you pile olive tree cuttings in the part under the chimney and get a good fire going. Once you have enough coals built up under the grate, you can push them over to the larger flat area then cook either directly on the rack which is really only good for large pieces of meat and vegetables, or you can use foil or a finer rack.
This next scene is one of the many beautiful fields of sunflowers all through central Italy. This one was right across the street from our lodgings. Bella!
This is our amazing, ever-enduring son who acted as our chauffeur. He drove as many hours in our week of "vacation" as he would have spent working- maybe more. The speeds were breath-taking. James kept to the speed limit (equivalent to 90-100 mph) but was often passed by REALLY speedy drivers. Surprisingly, we only saw evidence of one accident and that was just a fender-bender. That being said, it's a good thing James is an alert defensive driver! Sometimes accidents don't happen because some drivers are good at watching out for the poor judgement of other drivers.
