Today's travel destination:

Savonlinna, Finland.

Set amid gorgeous scenery, the town of Savonlinna occupies three islands in Lake Saimaa.  the old stone wals of the 15th-century Olavinlinna Castle, connected by a bridge to the mainland, fill with music each summer as theh Savonlinna Opera Festival takes place in the courtyard.

Have to post, I was taken there by Jari (Boris)

Very cool shot, Brian!  Thanks for posting it!

I've been wondering where you've been!  Glad to see you here!   ;D

Hiya BetterMost friends.




Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!    It's Friday!!!

I have a busy weekend planned!  I need to go out tonight and get some new polo shirts for work, and to wear tomorrow for a family reunion.

Saturday and Sunday is the family reunion.  My cousin Massimo who I met in Italy will be in town, with a few other Italian family members.  We're having a big dinner tomorrow night, and then a BBQ on Sunday.

;D

Today's travel destination:

Lake Coeur D'Alene, Idaho, USA.

Snaking through a glacier-dug channel between low, forest-covered mountains not far from the border with Canada, Lake Coeur D'Alene offers fishing, windsurfing, steamboat rides, waterskiing, and the simple lure of the old-fashioned family vacation.

Nice picture, Chuck.  I see the family resemblance, and it's clear that you come by your famous smile naturally.  :D

Agree and agree!

Me three!

I see your father's features in all of you, but your smile is definitely your mother's!

Thanks for the comments, Meryl, Kelda and Sonja.

 ;D




I'll share one more pic with you, one that we jokingly refered to as "The 3 Dollar Bill Club" shot.




L to R:  Michael (my cousin Guido's partner), me and my cousin Guido.

They live in NY, and have announced their getting married now that the state allows gay marriage.  ;D

There are a few more "members" of the club in the family, but they weren't there this weekend.
