Letter From the Editor -- Time For Some Top Ten Lists

Here in West Chester, (Dub-C as we sometimes call it), my life has been very busy, sono stata mooolto occupata. There are freelance projects I've been working on, and in the backyard, there is a hole, a circle 12 feet in diameter and 6 inches deep, waiting to be transformed into a terrace/fire pit. And a lovely thing, a fun dinner in West Chester with Diana, who is taking a much-needed break from Creative Structures and the renovation of her Baur B&B to visit with her family here in Chester County. But, in Stresa, it is vacation time, summer has begun. And there are so many things to do there also, so many things I want to tell you about. I just posted a list of what I think to be the Top Ten main attractions in Stresa, and I'm thinking that it may be helpful to cover some other subjects in this same way. Next, look for a Top Ten list of the summer sports and outdoor activities that can be enjoyed around Lago Maggiore. I'll post the list first; please check back often as I'll write a series of articles in these days to detail the ideas on the list. It'll be nice for me to think about hitting some golf balls in Italy, that type of hole instead of the very large one in my backyard...
