Postcards from the Underworld: A Sinister Wall in Stresa, Italy
A chilly late October morning
Stresa, Italy
Strolling through the streets of this northern Italian town on a lake
we stop for a morning cappuccino
Something across the street catches our eye
A house whose owner collects a number of objects both strange
and sinister...
Sis, I love that picture of you.
ReplyDeleteI have so been enjoying these postcards. They do seem to hover between more than one dimension ...
Now that's a great idea for a different kind of travel book - hovering between dimensions :))
DeleteBrilliant Post - starts me dreaming . . . .
ReplyDeleteI hope those are the good kind of dreams, not nightmares! :))
DeleteSome people will collect anything. Not sure if it's a good thing to have such sinister objects hanging on a wall.
ReplyDeleteNo kidding - especially hanging above a sidewalk where people pass underneath!
DeleteLooks interesting to me Amanda, And, may I say, you are model gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThat's kind, Donna — guess it was a good hair day! ;0-
DeleteAmanda, I agree with Donna, you look perfect and so relaxed!
DeleteThanks Ola - as I recall that day, I was relaxed......Italy does that to a person :))
DeleteI love the village setting of your cappuccino . I fell in love with Italy to my surprise--so much to love, but that setting is a big reason
ReplyDeleteThose items are secured? Yes? :-) imagine that in Cleveland?!
Happy trails, Amanda
Love

I didn't want to get close enough to test the security of those vicious looking tools —— but yes, that wall would be one big lawsuit in Cleveland hahaha!!!
DeleteThere is no end of discovery, of curiosity, of revealing and expressing something from the inner stream of life!
ReplyDeleteAnd that's a very precious thing to realize, Ruth <3
DeleteOh, you make me want to hop on a plane and return to Italy. That's quite an interesting wall collage!
ReplyDeleteIt must make a good burglar deterrent!
