Excellent pictures as always. I really enjoy your pictures. You are very fortunate to live In such a beautiful area. And to have a CASTLE! Haha... I thought Dragons were larger. Guess I was wrong, again.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Thank you for the pictures and the funny stories to go with them. I enjoyed them very much, thank you.


See Ya (maybe this is southern slang for Ciao)? haha

My mistake, should have said I thought Dinosaurs were larger! Bet they taste like chicken though <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Great pics. What period does the castle date to? The first pic has the road and a retaining wall, I was wondering if you knew how old this road is? I would love to visit Italy some day and take in the history. Thanks for sharing.

Alfredo your pictures always make me miss Italy. I spent 3 awesome years living there during the 80's. Some day maybe my wife and I can return for a visit.

The "castle" :-) it's probably from the 18th century or so...a simple country house...The road is really older, probably medioeval age...

Thanks so much. The area of the US I live in has on been inhabited by permanent dwellings for about 150 years. I figured the road was the medieval period and not Roman. Take care.
