Betsy and I got the chance to road trip through Italy with good friends
James and Jill this summer. I came back with a few frames, Betsy brought
back a few choice bottles of Tuscan wine and James and Jill came back engaged.
We drove our rented Mercedes on a 10-day road trip, including
visits to Rome, Florence, Sienne, and Milan but with most of our time spent tasting wine in Tuscany. In case you're wondering... Italy is highly recommended.
