Vancouver Island, Canada

The summer 2005 splurge was all about Vancouver Island -- we rented a house right on a cliffside close to Sooke Harbor. What a wonderful place. Watched orkas, seals and generally worked hard at chillin' out. Photos are here.

Sweet Tuscany

Autumn 2004 was the trip of all trips. We rented a beautiful farmhouse in Tuscany, close to Montepulciano. What a wonderful trip. Wonderful is all I can say -- well I could say more... It only rained one day over 6 weeks while we were there; we avoided the tourist traps; hiked from Montepulciano to Pienza; saw a great football game (Roma V Inter Milan); drank wonderful wine; eat enough meat and cheese to make us want to eat greens when we got home....

So the photos (there's quite a few) are sorted out below -- get going:

 

The old site collection of photos is here -- but otherwise you can check out:
