[Oldsarge]

My daughter was Air Force and she was attached to the NATO base there. I must admit that I was there in the worst possible time of year, the heat of July. Dreadful! Still, Mrs. Sarge still dreams of Capri and wishes we could afford a vacation home on the island. My next goal is to manage to get north of Rome. I hate to admit that I've never seen Tuscany, Lombardy or any of the fabled cities of the Renaissance but such has been life. Worse yet, I've never visited the Val da Trompo and that, for a devoted shotgun maniac, is criminal! And taking an entire month to visit Rome is another goal. It would take a month. Shoot, it would take a week just to see the Vatican! And I'm a Lutheran.
