  • Italy Part Four

    Wednesday, September 21 – Our airb&b in Verona had a coffee maker in it.

  • Still Waters Camp

  • Canning and freezing

  • Music Lessons

    Music lessons have been up and down the last several years. Zion started playing piano with Sis. Joanna P. when he was 6. He played for a few years with her (I don’t remember exactly how many) and then she quit because she was going to have a baby. So he went without a teacher…
