For many years I have abhorred sunset photographs. And in this century I have a particular distaste for those taken with smart phones.
And yet here I am using a sunset to illustrate this blog. Perhaps the reason for it is that my sunset view of the Ponte a Santa Trinità in Florence brings me wonderful memories of that trip there and to Venice with Rosemary in 2019.
She organized the trip from our bed with her iPhone and somehow got us the best hotels and economical airline tickets.
In Florence we had a hotel right on the water and just a few blocks from Ponte Vecchio. We would walk to the bridge and right there there was a supermarket that featured a machine that squeezed blood oranges. We drank lots of it.
Yesterday when my youngest daughter Hilary visited me for dinner I prepared a meal that was all Rosemary. We drank blood orange juice and had a salad and Yorkshire pudding.
I often repeat here St. Luke’s words from the King James Bible:
“Do this in Remembrance of me.”
