Achelo Syrah
Excellent, rich, full of flavor and fruit.
Double Rainbow in Tuscany
There was a nice double rainbow after a major thunderstorm outside our apartment.
Old Church
The ancient church in our town (of 4 discrete buildings) turns out to be more ancient than thought, built in the 10th century. It is in need of some stabilization.
Some architects were documenting the layout of the stones (a stone-by-stone process) for future restoration work and we had a chance to look around inside. This is a rare treat as it is only open once a year for mass.
Swallows nest in the church walls and are very entertaining at dusk.
Happy Spider
I made this sweater for you, try it on?

United pod ports
The pod ports include usb (power only, I think), a network connection (!), a 110V outlet as well as the wacky proprietary iPod connector that they still don’t have the cable for.
