Well, that was quite a hiatus from my blog; it's been two weeks since I have posted. Chalk that up to vacation, post-vacation tiredness and party-planning. But I got to the office early this morning and didn't feel like digging into work right away. Vacation time zone issues still have me waking at 3:30-4:00 am. At this hour, I find I like ABC -- America This Morning. The anchors, Kendis Gibson and Diane Macedo, have good chemistry and in the overnight, ABC seems to let anchors be a little less stuffy. Right before the show goes off at 4:30 am, they play trending videos. That's almost worth setting the alarm for.
OK, nobody should have opinions about 4 am TV.
My vacation was fabulous. I did a hiking trip with REI Adventures (same REI as the outdoor clothing and gear company) in Italy. It was all women and there is nothing like the company of women -- much silliness, laughter, toughness and tenderness at the same time. If you are looking for an outdoor, active vacation, I recommend REI. They have trips for all levels of ability and their guides are great. This trip was through the Cinque Terre region of Italy -- the Italian Riviera on the Northwest coast. I had taken a year of Italian in college. I wasn't able to communicate much, but it sure is a beautiful language.
No great wisdom to share today, just a photo looking down on Riomaggiore. My brain is still largely on vacation and I need to ease back into blogging. :)
