With our Alphabet Soup Week underway, it got me thinking about the inspiration for great music.  What motivates a composer to create? The sheer beauty of the Amalfi Coast inspired me to wish I were a composer so I could capture it all in some art form.  I guess I’ll settle for the art of digital photography.  (Yes, I was able to recover my deleted photos. Not inexpensive, BTW)  Our 24 hours in Positano were marked by a very dramatic "Tempesta di Mare" with thunder and lightning all night long.  Turned out to be the only non-sunny day of our trip. Guarda!
