Wow...we really are in the middle of nowhere!

And we are loving it! So...no cell service, really bad internet connections...HEAVEN!!! Montebelli is fabulous. Gorgeous accommodations, wonderful staff and guests, great fun. We have had lots of fun day trips to Montepulciano, Massa Marittima, Siena, and Deruta where we have sketched and painted and photographed. We have even been invited to have a little show of our work tomorrow night here at Montebelli. The kids have made such a great impression on our hosts that they want us to come back again and again! The food here is incredible and we are all on a first name basis with the staff. It will be so hard to leave on Friday, but we are so looking forward to seing our families again. Love to all--to the beach in Castiglione tomorrow!
