A treasure from Salzberg...

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 30 December 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

As we get ready to 'Ring in the New Year', thiis bell we brought back from Austria in 1998, seems appropriate. It reminds us of our wonderful month-long stay in Bad Ischl, with our dear friend, Reinhard.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog; your comments are greatly appreciated. I apologize for not getting to all of your posts. I will visit as time permits.
