Il Tempo Cambio ( change in the weather)

On Sunday there was a major dip in the temperature accompanied by high wind and rain showers.  We decided to use our reservations at the Agro Turismo Casale di Martignano had head into the country for lunch.  It was typical Sunday in the country in Italy experience with large tables filled with friends and family.  The outdoor roofed eating area was sheltered by lowering the heavy plastic curtains which crackled in the wind.  We enjoyed the views of the lake the fields and a ruined building.

On Monday morning I did my Yale MOOC with Bob Shiller and a cameo appearance by Larry Summers. Lynne finally discovered a local store who had all the ingredients for the raw bits breakfast including rolled oats, chia seeds, and muesli along with Quinoa.  On Monday afternoon when the sun came out briefly we headed over to the very nearby golf practice facility and witnessed how an Italian golfer reacts when he scores a hole in one with yells of ho vinto (I won) modestly directed at his 
opponent. 

On Tuesday morning we head to the Olgiata Golf Club probably for the last time as the golf package they offered us at a good price includes too many rounds for the length of our stay.  They are 
completely inflexible and would not offer us a half package or the possibility of getting a refund for the rounds we didn't play.  However, the golfers are very nice and the foursomes we encountered 
always let us play through.  As a result we finished in about 3 hours.
