From March 10-13, we stayed with our friends Wolfgang and Beate Kniepert in the small German town of Lauterbach where Steve was a high school student in 1967-68. We try to visit one another every few years. Our last trip to Lauterbach was in January 2009, when we watched the Obama inauguration with the Knieperts. This time their superb hospitality included a trip to a restored Roman border fort, a tour of an iron foundry that produces amazing pieces of art, and several fantastic meals featuring local specialties.
When we got back to Rome on March 14, our dear friends Dale and Lin Billingsley were here to meet us. We have known Dale since 1968 and Lin since the mid-70s. We have had a terrific time visiting new sites (and a few old favorites) with them here in Rome.
