thanks for all the kind comments. A few years ago I had the photo blown up and framed for all three of them…. and one for me. In the background you can see the “lone olive tree”that I mention in my last post and a pile of pebbles used for the driveway.
What great photo..and that was a fantastic idea to have it blown up,they must of loved it.
Classic photo and I’m sure a treasured photo for all of them too!
Just found your blog and I am in love with it! I too am a first generation Italian American…but living in Florida (born in NY). I have a picture of my nonno on one of these vespas too…it’s a treasure.
