I love you!
Hi Nancy, Yes, I think Italy may be our most favorite trips so far. Though France and Greece were also such great destinations that it would be a tough call to make.

The homeless I see in the west seem better fed and less deformed. Speaking of the Catholic church ... Kim has been spending time at Mother Theresa's home for the orphans in Delhi and enjoying it very much. Her job there is to hold and give attention to children under the age of 2 years. I hear everyone was in Chi-town recently and I wish we were there to see you all together. Give everyone a hug for me. Love, Dan
