Reminiscing--what a gift the digital camera has been to the bitter-sweet joy of looking backward! Childhood memories, which are so soon lost, burst alive again in vivid, full screen pictures. It is as if the camera has been set to time exposure as children grow before our eyes.
Casey doesn't remember Ecuador until I bring out the picture books and suddenly he recalls minute details. God, in his unfathomable creativity, has given our minds filing cabinets where all is catalogued and stored to be reclaimed at some point in life's journey. Thank you, God.
So... the last three short slideshows of summer 2011. These pictures are our memories thus a little short on famous places and "must sees". They are family landmarks, so to speak which, if the internet lasts, Casey can show his children (and grandchildren) someday. (Previous Three)
(Heads up: There is music so you may want to turn down sound.)
Greve-in-Chianti--Our Italian Home Town
Cortona--Love it Here
Assisi--Last Stop 2011
Assisi--Last Stop 2011
Our memories of 2011--of course, each slide, for us, triggers so much more. Hope you can feel them, too.

I have such a big smile on my face right now! Loved seeing Letizia! I walked the same streets in Norcia and drove the same road in the National Park of Mt. Sibillini...so very bella bella bella!!! Loved the videos.
I just looked at all of your photo albums of this year's Italy trip. What great fun you had! I loved the accompanying music too.
These are memories to be cherished.
Really beautiful, Jane!
Mindy, I actually thought of you when we were there and knew you had left footprints. Nancy and Sandra, thanks for enjoying our fun. It's good to share.
