Still in the States.....

The kids and I are still here in the States. I'm packing like mad without really packing. The moving company needs to know exactly what they are moving. They don't want the customer to pack anything, but they expect you to segregate everything into "going to Italy" and "going to storage". There are so many other categories: "friends", "charity", "eBay/Craigs list", "trash", "recycling" and "put this on the curb for the Thursday night vultures". The kids and I sort and put things in boxes every evening after homework is done.


Meanwhile, Ron has found us a nice place in Torri di Quartesolo, just outside of Vicenza. Here's a picture....

Torri is just under 2 miles from the installation and the kid's school is in between the house and the base. About the house - The two big doors are for the garage. The round part with the rectangular windows is the spiral staircase leading upstairs. The balcony over the garage leads to the living room. There are three bedrooms upstairs and a study/small bedroom downstairs. Full kitchen (small), AC, and a decent sized yard. It's off the main street. There isn't a lot of closet space but Europeans don't do closets anyway. It's all wood and marble floors, even the stairs.

Here are some photos of the inside......

This place makes me want to go to Ikea. There is one in Venice.
Ciao!
