    I wouldn't call it a weak spot. Academia has it's pluses. Families are strange I bet if you asked any of them why they stay away or don'ts invite you, they won't be able to answer. Probably ashamed you had to ask. Cheer up, count me as a friend. If I lived near you I would be visiting. You'll become tired of me 😀

    Passing a few years, Brad’s football team was doing well. He was enjoying the game as well as the fame. He did a few talk shows always saying good night to Angelina and me. I finished my master's and doctorate and was now teaching at the university. One of the professors was retiring and was selling his house. It was on the edge of the university which meant I could walk to class. We did buy Dad a small farm close to Brad’s dad. When everything seems to go very well, the fates throw yo

    I think Scott will teach Brad how to make them since he likes them so well.

    You are right. Brad seems like the type of guy one would say, what you see is what you get, a nice guy who loves with his whole heart, someone a person would cherish as a friend. I think you have someone like that if I have read between the lines of your comments correctly.

    We were met by both sets of parents. When my mom saw Angelina, it was love at first sight. I introduced her to our parents. I watched as mom spoke to her in Italian, she had a big smile on her face. I used the Italian terms for grandmother and grandfather. In the case of Brad’s parents, I used the terms in both languages. Angelina’s English lessons had begun. We rested Saturday, well we tried to rest. Mom had a thousand questions, I showed her the pictures, told her about Eva. At Brad’s ho

    You are right about Angelina and Brad. Dogs are funny as to how they attach themselves to one of two partners. You should be happy you have such a partner to earn the love of a dog

    She is respected by all. I imagine in some way she may be related to most. She certainly was respected by all

    Scott’s mom will take care of her until she learns enough English to attend school. It won’t take her long to pick up the language. It seems easier for kids then adults

    During that last week, I asked Eva if there was an emergency how would they handle it. She said they would call the police in Cavarzere and they would send people to help them. She also said a doctor comes once a month to check on the villagers. I was concerned if something happened like a heart attack, the individual would be dead before help could arrive. She said that some of the men were trained in first aid and how to deal with emergencies. I also suspect some home-brewed remedies were used
