Finally, this annus horribilus is ending for me on a sunny note. Having just returned from a too brief journey to the Island of the Sun, that is, Sicily where I and my friend Louise happily sweated our way through the cities of Palermo, Agrigento, and Cefalu, we have returned to our Mediterranean cities by an entirely different sea where the temperature in my house is at this moment 63 degrees Fahrenheit. I have a cd with over 200 pics of Sicily that I am anxious to sort through and share with all who happen upon this little corner of the Net. There was also an interlude in London where I got to spend two days in two magnificent gardens, Wisley and Kew. And there I snapped another 200 or so photos. So there is a rich booty to share…..when I have recovered from multiple time zone affective disorder.

Briggs, What a wonderful trip you had with your friend to Sicily! I don’t know how you managed to cram in so much in just one week! I loved your pictures, but also your commentary; it makes me want to go there and see it all for myself! The pastries sound fantastic. I can’t wait to see your London garden pics.
