This photo is one I took while my wife and I were traveling through Italy last fall. We stayed in a little cottage in an area called Umbria, (bordering Tuscany). Among our travels throughout different parts of Italy, I enjoyed this region the most because of the natural beauty of the landscape. Although I am used to mountainous landscapes here in Colorado, this was much different. The forests were much denser and most of the rock found in this area is of the Orvieto type. This kind of rock is extremely soft which causes the ground to easily erode and crumble especially during the rainy season.
