Day 43: (Yesterday was 42 not 41.  I SAID I'd lost track!)

Here is another shot of the green hut in a small vineyard across the road.  I've always loved this little snapshot view with the hills behind it.  Those things that look like telephone poles are actually for staking the wires that hold up the wines to the grape plants.  They are much higher than usual and the wires are very high as well.  What IS this man up to I ask?  I took these shots yesterday when I walked down to our mini supermarket. 

Rumor has it that as of May 4th we will be able to go out and about (in masks and with social distancing) within the region.  As the region of Piemonte goes right up into the mountains it means hikes and lakes!  Yay!  Businesses will be allowed to reopen following a strict step by step plan.  This is all good news.  The bad news is that the experts here, just like the experts everywhere, are saying that we can expect another bout of virus in the fall.  Joy.  Let's pray they have found a cure and a vaccine by then.

Stay well.  xxoo me
