The Old Country

Mom and Dad took a trip to Italy and were able to visit the village where my great-grandparents were from (my mom's paternal grandparents, the Antrosios.) With the help of some Italian speaking friends, they had contacted a distant cousin, Massimiliano, and he arranged for a reunion party!

Here's Auntie Carol with Mom and Dad over looking Ottiglio.They also visited Lucca, Florence, Assisi, Umbertide and Cinque Terra. They brought back for me a beautiful, hand painted tile tray and my favorite Piemontese hazelnut nougat candy!
