Interesting day today weatherwise. Two funnel clouds were hovering around vancity. However, they were both harmless.

Faye (lastchapter) | 409 comments Had good news today, a friend of my husband contacted us saying his very expensive trailer had been stolen. My husband and a few others promptly but out photos of it on facebook etc. It was found just a little scratched up but found and he has now picked it up he is a very happy man. Talk about the power of the social media! That is true karma.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9986 comments As we were leaving Milan yesterday, I saw at the station a Moleskine shop. I have read about these notenooks in sooo many novels that I succumbed to the hype and bought myself one! Just a small one, red cover, of course, and the lady gave me a Moleskine carry bag to take it away in. Not the original French Moleskine notebook, but now they are made in Milan, I thought it an appropriate souvenir from there.
We're at Lake Garda now see www.gardavillage.it
