| Even on a cloudy day, the colors of Rome are warm and welcoming. |
 |
| On the way to our favorite restaurant, just off Piazza Barberini |
 |
| It's raining, and umbrella sellers pop up like mushrooms. |
 |
| Via della Purificazione in the rain, going downhill to Piazza Barberini |
 |
| Sun at last |
 |
| A skeptical John Paul II and a wonderfully Latin Pope Francis on postcards near the stairs to San Pietro in Vincoli |
 |
| A poodle with a halo on the stairs to San Pietro in Vincoli |
 |
| Michelangelo's Moses in San Pietro in Vincoli |
 |
| Permanent Halloween ... |
 |
| A nun climbs toward San Pietro in Vincoli |
 |
| Toward the end of "la passagiata" in Teramo, Abruzzo. The whole center of town is exclusively for pedestrians. They're even suppressing the sidewalks. |
 |
| Stones from ancient Roman tombs used to build the ancient Romanesque Duomo |
 |
| Checking out the death notices, is she thinking "I'm still here!"? |
 |
| Nobody could explain why the lion was in front of the panel. |
 |
| A more typical post-coffee conversation among Italian men would be hard to imagine. |
 |
| The Duomo in Teramo; brilliant sunlight and black clouds ... |
 |
| How many pit stops on US highways offer narrative poetry? |
 |
| Carrousel in Teramo |
 |
| Heavy weather coming in across the Gran Sasso, Italy's tallest mountain, as we are leaving Abruzzo. |
 |
| The proverbial light at the end of the tunnel ... |
