Welcome, Friends and family our goal with this blog is to help you keep tabs on what we've been up to after moving to Italy in 2007, by sharing some of our experiences with you. We have many of our old favorite places yet we always seem to stumble into something really cool just when we think we've seen everything. Our goal is to share these new experiences, along with an occasional wine or travel tip.
Sincerely,
Robert and Leslie Alexander

Hazelnuts everywhere

25/08/09 Alexanders

The hazelnut harvest is almost over pictured is a sweeper style harvester
dumping its load into a tractor trailer.

Lucky for us (not ) a vacuum style harvester is used in our back yard.

The dust is incredible good thing harvest lasts only 2 or 3 days.

Another load.

Coming soon to a jar of nutella near you.
