Happy 150th birthday to my fellow Nebraskan Willa

Happy 150th birthday to my fellow Nebraskan Willa Cather! Congratulations to the @willacatherfdn on the re-opening of the Willa Cather Childhood Home. I can’t wait to visit!

Today I’ve been thinking about her time on the Amalfi Coast in 1908. This lovely poem reminded me of the view from Sorrento of the slopes of Vesuvius across the Gulf of Naples.

“RECOGNITION”
by Willa Cather
The old volcanic mountains
That slope up from the sea —
They dream and dream a thousand years
And watch what-is-to-be.

What gladness shines upon them
When, white as white sea-foam,
To the old, old ports of Beauty
A new sail comes home!

Welcome November! Listen to the church bells ringing for Ognissanti - All Saints Day - in #Amalfi.

Happy Halloween! For the spooky season, here’s a mosaic from Axel Munthe’s house @villasanmichele in Anacapri. It’s a copy of a mosaic from Pompeii that would have originally been seen as something like a reminder to enjoy yourself it’s later than you think (as the old song goes).💀👻🎃

Wishing you a beautiful start to the week! Dayligh

Wishing you a beautiful start to the week! Daylight savings time ended in Italy yesterday and I’m loving the extra hour of sunshine early in the morning. Especially with more rain on the way this week!

Results: mixed.

But The Travelers by @brunocesarcatalano in Amalfi has been extended to November 5, 2023. I wasn’t ready for them to travel on yet!

This morning I said my goodbyes to Bruno Catalano’s “Travelers” on my morning walk. Tomorrow I’m off to be a traveler myself and they’ll likely be gone by the time I’m back. They’ve been good company, but it’s time for them to move on to their next destination. 🧳
