Mama and papa are really upset about the earthquake in Italy.  So many dead and more buried and the little towns around the epicentre, devastated.

All of the family are fine, however, and were not near the disaster even though not terribly far away.  Very nervous-making to have everything shake in the middle of the night.

No blog today, only prayers for the people of Amatrice and surrounding towns and hamlets and hope that there will be no more aftershocks.

The quake was felt even in Rome and mama is trying to find out if all is well there, but I think it is.  The land is very seismic under much of Italy and this was like the quake in 2009 in L’Aquila.

I hope so much all will get better.
