[image ALT: Much of my site will be useless to you if you've got the images turned off!]

During the first half of the month, I was still living in Todi and walking thru Umbria despite colder weather.


The more interesting entries are on darker backgrounds.

November 1	Walk to Montecastello di Vibio.
November 2	Visit St. Francis's cave at the Eremo delle Carceri near Assisi.
November 3	Continued report of my visit to Assisi: the Duomo, the Basilica; S. Maria degli Angeli: the Porziuncola (on the 2nd); a fast walk from the Lateran to the Colosseum, and some skating in Marino.
