Italy!!!
My husband is going to Italy this week, starting out in Rome, then driving to Ancona (Marshes Region), Perugia (Umbria), then Sienna, Firenze/Florence (Tuscany) and then Alessandria. He will be driving -- anyone know of any nice little hotels, restaurants, castles, museums, churches, ruins, little towns, etc., that are not to be missed? Thanks in advance.

You could say all of Italy is worth visiting. Those cities/towns alone have so much to offer, he won't have enough time to see all.
In Florence he ought to go to the parking place "Michelangelo" above the city. He will have a wonderful view of Florence from up there. Something like this:
how are you doing these days? 
All's very well here, jumping between busy and manic for most of the time at work...but all good.
How's life with you?
No reason to complain whatsoever these days. Still employed (some days slow, some days crazy) and in a happy relationship since almost a year.
Good to hear that you are doing fine too
No, really, wow, lucky guy. I'd say you can't really throw a rock without hitting something beautiful or amazing in Italy. I haven't been there in almost 30 years, though, so no specific advice.
I don't know! It's been 20+ years since I've been there too and I remember feeling the same way. 
For the great comments and recommendations everyone. I will pass them along to my husband.
He will spend two days there so maybe he can find time to eat at these restaurants. I will let you know if he does!
it was lovely..
