Ma e&#8217; la quiete e la tranquillita&#8217; che si respira intorno la sua caratteristica principale.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zPYXHt90I\/AAAAAAAAAWk\/5qk-K3-DE5o\/s1600-h\/casa_jared.jpg\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142212891980461890\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zPYXHt90I\/AAAAAAAAAWk\/5qk-K3-DE5o\/s320\/casa_jared.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nLa casa e&#8217; immersa nella natura, con 4 bellissimi cani e un sacco di gatti. I due Yorkshire spadroneggiano in casa (purtroppo non ho foto), ma fuori ci sono Giorgio e Gelato, due splendidi e giganteschi cani, di una dolcezza infinita. E i gatti non sono riuscito a contarli.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zQz3Ht91I\/AAAAAAAAAWs\/Q35-UtBlh-8\/s1600-h\/animali.jpg\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142214463938492242\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zQz3Ht91I\/AAAAAAAAAWs\/Q35-UtBlh-8\/s320\/animali.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAnche dal punto di vista gastronomico il weekend e&#8217; stato molto interessante, con gli ottimi fish-tacos mangiati sabato e la straordinaria colazione messicana di domenica mattina.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zRi3Ht92I\/AAAAAAAAAW0\/CLdGKg33IWA\/s1600-h\/cibo.jpg\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142215271392343906\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zRi3Ht92I\/AAAAAAAAAW0\/CLdGKg33IWA\/s320\/cibo.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nNon poteva mancare il tema delle decorazioni natalizie, e il centro di Redding mi ha colpito perche&#8217; caratterizzato da un&#8217;isola pedonale (insolito per gli Stati Uniti) e con straordinari giochi di luci natalizie.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zR63Ht93I\/AAAAAAAAAW8\/yIdhDmZ8GIs\/s1600-h\/DSC00261.JPG\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142215683709204338\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zR63Ht93I\/AAAAAAAAAW8\/yIdhDmZ8GIs\/s320\/DSC00261.JPG\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nInfine, ci sono state anche emozioni motoristiche. Dennis il papa&#8217; di Jared, possiede un bellissimo chopper, e un&#8217;auto d&#8217;epoca americana, del 1956. Veramente da brividi.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zTBnHt94I\/AAAAAAAAAXE\/b-T1Mn-O_AY\/s1600-h\/chopper.jpg\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142216899184949122\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zTBnHt94I\/AAAAAAAAAXE\/b-T1Mn-O_AY\/s320\/chopper.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nSia moto che auto, in perfette condizioni.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zTN3Ht95I\/AAAAAAAAAXM\/qNDBI26Vhx4\/s1600-h\/DSC00283.JPG\" onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142217109638346642\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EEhjYqsNhZ4\/R1zTN3Ht95I\/AAAAAAAAAXM\/qNDBI26Vhx4\/s320\/DSC00283.JPG\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nGrazie ancora per la bellissima giornata; vi ammiro tanto, siete eccezionali, e il sorriso di Jared e&#8217; impagabile.<br \/>\nAncora una volta mi sono sentito parte della vostra famiglia, e spero di cuore di vedervi piu&#8217; spesso, anche con Silvia, qui in California, o in Italia (terra che Jared ama tanto).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>This weekend I went to Redding, a town 260 miles north of Santa Clara, not that far from Oregon south boundary. I went there to meet my dear friend Jared, and his lovely parents, Virginia and Dennis.<br \/>\nI spent with them beatifull moments, and I have to thank them because they were extraordinarily kind with me.<br \/>\nTheir house, within the nature, over a beautiful hill full of &#8220;whispering oaks&#8221;, is wonderful.<br \/>\nAnd there are a lot of animals around. Four dogs, two small Yorkshires (the kings of the house) and two big dogs, Giorgio and Gelato. They are beautiful. Moreover there are a lot of cats around. And a lot of birds too.<br \/>\nTo spend some time with Jared and his family is always nice. They are a special family and I would like to see them often, together with Silvia, maybe here, or maybe in Italy (country that Jared loves and where he always hopes to come back). With them I had also very good lunch, dinner and breakfast. The breakfast, mexican based, was very impressive and original. And I definitely think that it will be impossible to loose weight before Silvia will come.<br \/>\nThe weekend was also exciting because of Christmas lights in down-town Redding, and because of the beautiful chopper Dennis owns. Moreover he has also a lovely old-fashioned american style car, more than 50 years old.<br \/>\nThanks again for everything, and thanks to Jared, in particular, for his always beautiful smile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Questo weekend e&#8217; stato per me molto speciale.
