Thank you for taking the time to visit our site, and letting us share our recent vacation to Italy with
you.  We had a fantastic 17 days, which included 8 days of biking in Lazio and Tuscany.  We
enjoyed the food, the art and history, and the people that we met.  We hope that you find happiness
and inspiration in our pictures.  Perhaps next summer will see you biking through the Italian
countryside!  If we can do it, anyone can.

We want to take the opportunity to thank some people who helped us greatly.  Hill Country Bicycle
Work, Kerrville's one and only local bike shop, for their help with bikes, gear and repairs.  Without
your help we would have been in trouble.  Our touring company, Randotrek, put together an
outstanding tour package.  We would recommend them to anyone.  Cova Orantes and Heidi Wells,
who babysat our dogs during our trip, and Joe and Sara Baulch, who watered our garden, all have
our heartfelt thanks.  And finally, all of our parents, who supported and encouraged us, need to
know how much we appreciate everything that they have given us to help make this trip possible.

We hope that you enjoy our vacation.  And if you thought that this year looked fun, just wait for next
summer!
