Oh, that would be the bee’s knees to visit Williamsburg at Thanksgiving (and I’ll bet they dress it up at Christmas, too). We could have a mint julep and some black forest cake for dessert (even though I never drink mint juleps), then we could go make some homemade candles. :-)
That is such a special place, and your Dad lives there! Very cool!
Forget Italy (regardless of money better spent or what). I would stay away from Europe at this time, period.
Night Gina, have a good week.
