We usually go into space that's been built-out already, but this time we're doing it the hard way.

That's good news! <br /><br />Not sure if you were around to read my contractor nightmares from earlier this year, but let's just say, having your contractor call you from the slammer is not good news. <br /><br />I hope your plans go smoothly and the house goes up without a hitch - then you can get your garden in the ground by spring!

First, because they were Italian tourists in Italy (which, I guess makes sense since we have American tourists in American cities, too), but also because they were so wild. Who knows!<br /><br />Put up some posts on the construction of your new place - I'm sure you already have stories. ;) And since it's bound to drag (it is construction afterall) you should have time to run off to Italy for un cafe e coronetti. Mmmmmmmmm, and maybe some Nutella ;)FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-53551651279413236062006-10-16T06:56:00.000-07:002006-10-16T06:56:00.000-07:00What great pics, and yes, I'm still jealous.
The ...What great pics, and yes, I'm still jealous.<br /><br />The only thing that has me puzzled is the drunk Italian tourists. There seems to be an agreement amongst Italians that appearing drunk in public is a no-no and if you see someone really drunk in public chances are they're American or British.<br /><br />Keep the gorgeous pics coming!<br /><br />I'm secretly hoping that the permitting and construction onmy new place down in Georgia drags on past April so I can take a quick trip to Italy and get my fix.Stunned Donorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760806404865427760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-58727411159705603302006-10-16T05:30:00.000-07:002006-10-16T05:30:00.000-07:00Shelley - Ok, so I'm glad we can still laugh about...Shelley - Ok, so I'm glad we can still laugh about this.

Welcome!<br /><br />Yes, I tend to take hundreds of photos while I'm in Italy. I'll be posting more this week - Rome, etc. It's hard to take a bad shot of the place.FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-65055088222221977702006-10-15T10:59:00.000-07:002006-10-15T10:59:00.000-07:00Stumbled upon your site looking for pictures of It...Stumbled upon your site looking for pictures of Italy.
