Don’t Forget to Turn Around

I'm a fairly forward thinking person. I've never been one to spend a great deal of time reflecting or get stuck in the past. The truth? I'm a perpetual motion machine perplexed by people who have the time to be bored. (I mean seriously? With so much to learn and read and do?) But sometimes I do ...

The New Year

The beginning of a new year is always a special time - for reflection, for a pause in the hubbub of daily life and for hope for the year ahead. Even though it's just one of the many days each year, it still feels something like a blank canvas or that crisp, empty page of a new notebook. Boy there's ...

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. 🧳

I’m back! After some time in the USA with family I’m back! After some time in the USA with family, I’m back home in Amalfi and adjusting to the time with my usual early morning walks. What’s not usual is that there are so many people out and about now compared to when I left in July. At 7:30am this morning there were already people set up at the beach to get those first sun rays that you can see just hitting the beach. Very clever! The water is so clear and pretty in the morning. I enjoy watching the changes that come throughout the season. This morning there were two guys tossing a football on the beach. That was unexpected! 🏈
