About Me

I am a 45 year husband and dad, currently adjusting to life back in the United States after living in Italy for a little over two years. I love spending time with my family, cycling, model railroading, mosaics and watching TV and movies.

Bimbimbici

It's a cloudy Sunday in Vedano al Lambro.

We spent a lazy morning at home. Brandon played with his Legos. Katrina worked on a collage. I watched a movie.

Ants, they are driving me crazy. If anyone has tips on how to get rid of them, please email me and let me know. Right now we have some ant traps and a line of chili powder along the wall. I also sealed one of the holes.

This afternoon Brandon and I rode our bikes into Vedano to take part in Bimbimbici, a family bike ride. There, we waited for two other groups, one from Monza and one from Villa Santa, to meet up in Vedano. Those two groups had quite a few bicyclists. Brandon and I were the only ones to show up for the Vedano group. Oh well. Once everyone was ready, we had a police escort to a park in Lissone. We had fun doing a 'group' ride, but Brandon thought the pace was a bit slow.

Everyone heads out



In Lissone we all met at a rec center for snacks and a magic show. The snacks were good, but the magic show was pretty hokey. Brandon and I left early and headed home.
