Welcome


Great conversation and company, coupled with a fabulous meal and wines….how perfect.  Our new neighbors took us out for dinner last night to this fabulous little local restaurant around the corner – Lucio’s.  I was so impressed by the food.  So far, I have really struggled with a lot of the meal options at restaurants.  Portion sizes are enormous and, as a general rule, sauces and dressings seem to be a big deal here.  That is; everything is smothered.  But the chef at Lucio’s has struck a perfect balance.  However, the food was really just complimentary to our wonderful company.  Our little complex of 8 townhouses is fabulously multicultural.  We have neighbors from Columbia, Venezuela, Italy, US and England – that I know of.  Architects, builders, engineers, lawyers, a professional linguist and translator, and a photographer.  So much to share and learn from each other!
