...travelling to Italy tomorrow....

Tonight...I'm finally packed and ready to leave upstate NY for a week in Tuscany and Florence. Last year, at this time, we travelled to Rome, Naples and the Amalfi Coast...our first trip to Italy...fell in love with Rome..thats when I realized it felt right, familiar, somehow, like home. This year, we are returning, but to Florence...to see the land, the art, the architecture, the countryside..the street scenes, the food, the cafes, the cappucino...and the ceramics..
At this time tomorrow night, I will be somewhere over the huge Atlantic...
Ciao.

The opening reception is February 19th. Hope everyone is in a buying mood.
