Italy






We have returned from Italy and we sure had a great time and sure do appreciate Becky and David for taking such good care of us. We saw some amazing things, and did not travel far from their home. I am fasinated by history and Midevil times, and that kind of stuff is all over the area that Becky lives. Dan and Angie traveled a little further to Rome and Venice, and they will show pictures on their blog I am sure. We went to the oldest public library in Italy (maybe all of Europe) 1400's right in Cesena. The books were all chained to the reading benches. Sounds weird, but it was way cool!!. We also went to the Republic of San Marino which is a very small country on a mountain within Italy. You can see it from the Mosses home. I am very impressed with Eli and Adam's ability to speak Italian. Gabriel is mister friendly, and little Isaac is sooo cute and doing well. We would love to tell you all more about our trip and share more pictures with you anytime.

CHeck it out



I have been playing in photoshop. I think these type of simple images are cool. i think this one of dan and angie would look really cool on a stretched canvas huge on the wall. I am trying to find a way to copy an image onto clear plastic and then project the image onto a solid color canvas. i then could draw in the areas that i needed to paint. ( i got this idea from something the elementary teachers did for some of us. they projected a black and white picture of us onto butcher paper and used a marker to create a huge portrait.) if you want me to try one of you and your honey then take some pictures and send them along. it works best with a simple background and your heads close together. i have seen kissing shots like this and it's cool.
