Hello,

When I say the old country I mean this town. My parents move here after the war. Town's hystory dates it around the year 1000 A.D.

Hello Steve,


The Lazio region looking south towards Montecassino, south of Roma. I did not take the picture...

Hello Russ,

Me too, I should have a similar photo taken in the day time. I can point out my school as well as the house I lived in with a day picture. There are palm trees in the street, yeah! It's that warm. I better stop, or I will need a big towel to cry on,

Guido. 😇

Hello jniolon,

I played soccer by that moon. I did have younger eyes though. The soccer field was only 100 meters
from my front door,

Hello Steve@Advance

I was not born there, just my father. My mother is from the region of Abruzzi. They married and lived there until the war. They were refugees when I came along, and an American Chaplain by the name of GUIDO officiated my Baptism.
Thanks for asking me to share that part of my life. I am neither a writer, nor a story teller. But in retrospect, I guess the war stories along the with things I saw and experienced they sure are a bit different than most. I will give it thought, and see if there is a way to my story, without boring all to death,

Guido.
 
Hello larry@ stinescorner,

Here is a day picture. It's not panoramic like the night one though,

I would love to hear stories also. My grandmothers brother is buried in Italy and his children went to the us cemetery there. The pictures they brought back are breathtaking
 
Hello Bob in SD,

Did you know Sicilians consider themselves NOT Italians? I thought the one that lived in the same apartment I was living in NY was kidding me, or did not no his geography well. Through the years I came to find out he was right! All I have meat since say the same thing, go figure.....
