Love love your blogs!!!!
I love reading your blogs and seeing your pictures. Being that I will likely never visit this part of the world, I can live vicariously through your blogs. The culture and sights seem so interesting. Ah, the coffee, that is the only one I can relate to for now. Well, the Porgess kids are doing great and they all come home Monday night. I miss them so. I have had a great summer in LA. Lots of out of towners and have been doing lots of fun things in and around LA. All the East coasters constantly remark on the beautiful weather here. 35 degrees there/ WOW! The kids and I are going to Mtl. August 24-26. Bummer we will miss you. I speak to Judi often and she misses you guys a lot and we both look forward to when you come home safely. By the way Sam just made a picture book from Shutterfly about our trip to Italy and that is what you must do when you get home. Love you BOTH Susie
