The Heat.....

has finally broke down here in Africa. I actually have the windows open and not a moment too soon as the A/C compressor outside has frozen up. You get so sick of breathing processed air that it starts to drive you crazy. I'm leaving the windows open as long as I can today to try and air the house out...I friggin hate Florida....from May to September

the family hails from the Abruzzi Province Dom

That's not Africa! We have some friends there. Just spent a weekend in Navelli just south of L'Aquila. Beautiful countryside and you can get places dirt cheap. Doesn't seem to be too much work though. We went for the ceci (chickpea-garbonza beans) & zafferano (saffron) festival and Palio like Siena. Only on donkeys. What a mad house. Imagine a chick dressed in a red skirt, white shirt and red shawl with ceci sewn in as fringe and a huge hat with saffron flowers sticking out presiding over 15 dudes in tights racing donkeys around a quarter mile track. Ate real well though.

someday Dom I'm going to go to Italy...I've always wanted to-my whole life. My cousin Anthony has a little apartment in Roccavivi a little mountain town where our family comes from so we'll have a place to stay for free...I envy you bro

I don't know Roccavivi, but I checked and it's also in L'Aquila. About 110km from Navelli. All on a giant "S" on A25 closer to Rome. It's pretty far from Milan, but it'd probably take well less than an hour from Navelli. If you come let me know.

Same here in Houston SOFL we always crack open a bottle of champagne when the first cold front goes through -- still waiting for it though --

it starts to drive me insane 57...I look for the slightest front of under 90 degrees to air the house out...I'm a fall type guy-I miss those fall Jersey days and those snow days too and spring used to be great too-here it's hot and not as hot
