This is my second entry into the Virtual Paintout's Lido di Jeloso location. I found this country lane on a small island. It seems to be the only road, in fact. There's some sort of agritourism hotel just around the bend—looks like a nice place.

    1. Thanks Margie! I know, it always seems so easy after it's done, doesn't it? :-)
