Triora, Italy
This is the beautiful village where we spent 8 days with Jennie, Martin, Elliot & Luke. Luke is presently living there.
Jennie, Martin & Elliot, along with Amanda & Hans Henry, spent a week at Lake James with us. We also loved spending time with Susan's cousins, Tutti (from Albuquerque) and Billy, at Lake James. We miss walking the hills with Tutti! Zesto and Ritters (frozen custard) called to us every day and we are having withdrawal.
Our heartfelt thanks to King of Glory Lutheran Church for our incredible trip to Spain and Italy! We've visited many different churches this summer and we really do miss KOG! Enjoy the photos!
