I would like to wish everyone a very healthy and happy new year as I think of my friends and family in Sicilia as the hour of the new year is but minutes away. Included here are four images, one of which is just part of a very beautiful fountain in Ortygia just across the bridge from Syracusa, a view of Mount Etnea from the northern seaside town of Brollo, a black and white image of my very special Sant'Alessio and part of the ancient ruins at Selinunte which was the backdrop for Michela Mussolino's concert in 2007 in southern Sicily. Buon Anno pieno con felicita`, serenita`, pace e armonia.
