its raining, again

its cold and rainy when just yesterday it was hot and beautiful. there was not a cloud in the sky. yesterday of course was sunday and so we looked for the local church building. it was a very small building located on the outskirts of siena, and took forever to find. the branch consisted of 8 women and 1 man. yeah, thats what i said. the elders basically controlled the branch. everyone was so kind there and really were welcoming. right after church was over they ran over to me and already put me to work on geneology. sounds like fun. they were so excited to hear that i would be staying with them for 3 months. sounds like bad news bears.

-just saw someone drinking this standing at the bar. nothing looks more warming on a cold, dreary day-
