I know that you will enjoy the garden this summer with all that beauty.<br />Understand about the dogs -- it's hard getting someone to watch them if you are living in Europe (although we were very lucky when we lived in Luxembourg -- had a great kennel). Things like kennels (and people who will take the dogs into their own home are easier here in the States). My 4th Springer Spaniel Darcie is lying next to me while I type this. She is very content to be near her people.<br />I might get to Venice this Fall with a couple of lady friends. Nothing is scheduled yet (and it might not happen) but if it does, it would be great to see you and possibly sign on for one of your tours.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08249874735043959774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7956489623554999361.post-7553642113167306862013-06-03T15:30:41.892-04:002013-06-03T15:30:41.892-04:00Dianne- there is tons of space to sit out there.

Mike just laughed!!<br /><br />And yes, plenty of space for a dog, however if we ever were to get one, there is an even better place- the park at Sant'Elena is just in front of our apartment, and it's huge. No more dogs for us, however. Our hearts were broken, the thought of suffering this kind of pain every again is just too much. And- we want the ability to just take off and travel whenever we want, which is impossible if you have to locate a pet sitter. We're going to enjoy not having that responsibility, at least for the foreseeable future. <br />karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02387141835879842596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7956489623554999361.post-16149210804910312422013-06-03T15:27:04.914-04:002013-06-03T15:27:04.914-04:00Do you have any space to sit out there?

Or space for a dog to run (it's been some time since your two passed away and I was wondering if you thought about another one -- although it must be very hard to have a dog with your schedules).Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08249874735043959774noreply@blogger.com
