Sicily is a fantastic place, everyone should visit it. I think Sicily stays keeps the traditional Italian ways, based on my experience there. I think Italy has lost a little of the culture. But I think Sicily retains it. These are just some pics of my time in Sicily. Have a great day.

Very opposite, lol. But I had the good fortune when I was in the Navy go to the naval base near Catania, and worked down in Augusta Bay. I had gotten 2 sets of 2 year orders. I was all over Sicily. I’ve been to Corleone and Palermo many times. Along with other cities like Taormina and Siracusa.

My family comes from a northern Italian village called Lozzo di Cadore north of Venice in next to the Dolomites (Alps).

Mediterranean blood. I come from an Italian family as well, and my wife always gets upset at me because I can get a tan in the shade while it is raining out with no effort, and unfortunately she has to work at it to get a tan. Mediterranean blood has its value.

You are the best. Thank you for being AWESOME.

Hi Val,
You can credit me. It is a worthy redemption. She got blamed for 30+ years in canon and in non-canon for crashing the enterprise. And she showed up like a boss in Picard season 3. If you could credit me as Mike from the YouTube channel Sci-Fi and more, that would be awesome.

Troi’s redemption arc. She was blamed for decades for crashing the enterprise. Then in Picard season 3, turned into a millennium falcon style stunt pilot making the enterprise as maneuverable as a fighter, and saving the away team in the process. That’s a great redemption arc.

It looks good on you. I’m glad it finally made it to you. Have a great day my friend.
