Mark, from our writers' group, invited us to his house for lunch Sunday. He lives with his two daughters near Lucre, a small town just outside Cusco. The view is spectacular. The house - a work in progress made of wood and stone - sits on a slope overlooking a lake which has mostly dried up, exposing a vast green valley. It's a protected historical area rich in Inca and pre-Inca remains. It was the best Valentine's Day I can remember. Thank you Mark & friends.
