Art Notes
As the summer sun ascends over the rustic village of Tuscany, the vibrant colors of the new harvest materialize into focus.
My wife and I gaze over the fields as we pick a variety of sunflowers for our breakfast table. The serenity is astounding this time of year. During the morning, no sound but the fountain water trickling down to the fish filled pond can be heard. We decide to linger at a nearby table and enjoy the tranquility for a while. After some time, the silence is broken by the gentle strumming of a guitar that can be heard throughout the area.
As my eye’s focus across this breath taking land, I wonder of its past history. The many decades of stories that have enriched Italy’s gem countryside. I notice a small Tuscan village with a variety of churches with beautiful steeples further in the distance. A summer in Tuscany is filled with special surprises and delectable authentic food around every corner. We will forever cherish these memories of our “Summer in Tuscany.”
