Bob and Lorraine (my cousin) Scholes of Dayton plus Elaine and I just returned from a six week vacation trip to Italy, Sicily and Switzerland. It was the Scholes’ second trip to Italy and our first-ever trip.
Lorraine’s father was born in Ponte Buggianese and my Dad was born in Lucca, and we both wanted to visit where our roots began.
We left on August 30, flew from Reno to Denver to Montreal to Rome and then returned from Rome to Zurich to San Francisco to Reno on October 12. Here are a bunch of our memories:

It’s not very often that people are presented with a win-win scenario, but the new “Conserve Wildlife” license plate now available at any Nevada Department of Motor Vehicle office may just fit that description.
Money from the sale of the new license plate, which features a mule deer, sage-grouse and a rainbow trout against a classic Nevada landscape, will go directly to the Nevada Department of Wildlife’s (NDOW) wildlife education and volunteer programs.

Reinvention: We're all in this together.
This is the vision of the proposed Edgewood Tahoe Lodge at Stateline.

It was announced Monday that the Safeway supermarket on North Carson Street would be closing Nov. 23 after spending 38 years in their location at 2035 North Carson Street.
