Time surely does fly, Rebecca. Today I can't shake the sadness I feel, the tragedy that occurred in the Hunter Valley, a spot my husband and I know ell.

HV is homes to some of the best wineries. Many of these wineries are also wedding venues.

In the early hours of today, a bus carrying guests overturned, ten, so far were killed. I imagine it means a few children are now without parents.

A sad story, offset by the finding of the four South America children,.

Life is beautiful for much of our lives, at the same time devastating for others.

It's how we all journey home.

Glad you had a great family get-together. With a name like Maria, are you sure I wasn't invited??

Love that the Italians are fiercely life-loving. It's the only way to be. :)
