Thanks for posting up the video link Daniele. I took the "tour." It is lovely! My visits to Italy were only in your mountains for skiing pursuits. I need to visit more of Italy and of the world. Fates be willing, I still have time.

Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon. Eric -

Glad to see you are ok my friend! Stay safe!

Beautiful, yet unsettling. I pray that things get better for you and all of Italy. Some predictions are saying the US is on the same path. I hope this isn't true, and that folks can do what's necessary to help prevent the spread of this virus here, in Italy, and all over the world.

I thank you very much wholeheartedly, who wrote me publicly and who did it privately. Thanks again
It is very useful in this strange period of captivity to have contact with the outside world. It is healthy to keep alive.
I hope Italy will be open to all soon, although I doubt it.
Just as I hope that what happens here every day is avoided in other countries and we can live without this invisible ghost.

Verona today at eleven A.M. This is Piazza Brà with the Arena
The other streets, squares and places of Verona these days

The future days are uncertain to most of us Daniele. I feel for your beloved Italy and all the nations of the world who are suffering under this calamity. I think of you and our other forum members thru the day. I give thanks that, to date, the collective we are still able to enjoy our day.

The posted vids are spooky as they may represent the upcoming days here in my neighborhood in Minnesota. How foolish to think our environment of 1,000's of lakes and colder temps might insulate us. It has never been as clear that the world is different today than yesterday.

Daniele, thanks again for sharing pics and vids of your beloved neighborhood. I am remiss, upon reflection, that I have not taken more time in the past to say thanks to you and many others for sharing their daily hat adventures. I do read the posts and pay attention. I hope you are soon able to out and about bringing us news of Italy.

Thinking of you and our many forum members today. Be safe, be strong and see you in the street soon, Eric -

Stay safe, my good friend. Thank you for the video.

As you well know, for public health reasons I cannot leave my municipality of residence. Nobody can do it. Italian cities are empty of people who walk, converse, joke and laugh. It is the consequence of the Coronoavirus. I want to show you a video of a city unique in the world as you've never seen it before. Empty, without tourists, rarities among rarities, with the blue water of the canals, the silence and its unique architecture the visible world.
It is a unique opportunity.
Have fun seeing Venice as you will never see it

Hello friends from the other side of the Ocean and in others Europeans countries.
Here the situation is going on. It is not easy, but we always hope for the best
I have found some videos of Venezia I wish share with you
They are made by an artist; I presume young, since a pupil of photography course I had, give me this link.
Take a look. They are one minute long with the natural soundtrack. Every short is dedicated to a place
Keep them because you never see Venezia in this wonderful and solitary way

I broke quarantine over the weekend and took a little drive through the country to clear my head. Noccalula Falls near Gadsden, Alabama is where I ended up. It was a nice day to get out and take in some scenery.

On the way home I thought I saw something up in the woods on Strait Mountain.

I hope everyone is safe and well.

Not far afield...about nine miles from my front door. A coworker’s family owns a large ranch with a gravel operation. The gravel pits flood, and they have over a dozen ponds ranging from 15 acres to over 80 acres.

The bass were biting and a Wrangler Shantung kept the sun out of my eyes.

Brent congrats on the catch. Sun, warmth and fishing = perfect adventure. Good luck on the next cast and wishing you tight lines.

Glad to hear you're hanging in there, Daniele. Hope the Italian government can ease up on the restrictions soon, so you can enjoy your own wonderful city again (before the tourists take over).

Glad you are safe and well sir. Thanks for sharing the special video showcasing your beautiful city. No people - I could not even spot them in windows. Strange times. Verona is one of the many glorious treasures of our world. Eric -

Good to hear you’re safe. I think Italy has done a good job with a bad situation. I’m anxious for the world to get back to normal. Take care. Brent
