Travel to Scandicci in Tuscany

Filed under: Travel by Lance on 4/30/2006

Today was a travel day, with a start in Naples and a hoped for finish in Florence. We left the hostel in Naples around 9 AM and grabbed a tram; it dropped us near the train station. We found and boarded our train around 10:30 AM and zoomed off towards Rome. It was very full [...]

Spring Training Game

Filed under: Images by Lance on 4/1/2006

I was lucky enough to have a day off this week! It’s a rare occasion this month as I am neck-deep in web projects and planning summer travel with Erin. Not to mention setting up for our next stage in life, which is living in an RV full-time; more on that later.
