Strolling the streets of Siena figuring out what to do next

Having put our Vermont house on the market and our stuff in storage, and without any clear plan in mind, we headed off for Italy in the fall of 2005. Our first stop was a small apartment  in the Torre contrada just off the Pizza del Campo in Siena, Italy, which we rented on a month-by-month basis.

The two of us spent our days meandering the side-streets and back-alleys of this medieval walled city, wrapped in stone, protected from the cares of the world while we figured out what to do with the rest of our lives. I'd like to share a few moments of that very special time with you:

Happy New Year!
