I can’t believe it has been almost a month since I posted here. I guess that’s what happens when you are focused on writing a book. I have been seriously working on a photo book that I hope to publish this spring. Stay tuned for that.

Molise is the region in Italy where my paternal grandparents were born. Originally Molise was part of a region called Abruzzi e Molise, but in 1970, that region was split into the two regions of Abruzzo and Molise, making Molise the newest region in Italy. The area is mountainous and beautiful, not typically a tourist area.

Enjoy a few photos from Molise.

Can you tell I have an attraction toward these old doors? I often wonder who lived in these homes and what they were like. Today most of the homes here are vacant. Lots of stories behind these doors…but we’ll never know them.
