I am in here.

Where I am right now: Paris. And no, not Paris, Kentucky :)

We spent a week on a barge in Belgium and Holland with some friends, floating around and, for me at least, trying to eat too much. I don’t want to start losing weight. No, we can’t have that, can we?

Then, Buck wanted to run in the Paris marathon. He ran the last half of it, got his medal, and is very pleased with himself, as you can see in the picture in the post preceding this. Now we just hang out in Paris, thinking of things to do.

Today, we went to see Sainte Chapelle, which I have wanted to see since around 1975 or so. I kept arriving at times when the place was closed, or with cranky teenaged boys in tow, or both. Today, we corrected all that, and I spent a long time staring at the best windows in the world.

So, how was your day?

    how was my day? Oh, I gathered rocks in the field, then came back to find snakes coming out from under the north slab porch. That porch isn’t used in the winter. Man, I freaked out, then got out the shovel and starting walloping the things.

    We do live in slightly different worlds, don’t we? *grin*

    Hi Patti,

    Congrats to Buck. I’m in NYC, but I think Shirl is having wayy more fun than I am.

    I spent yesterday reading Michael Pollan’s bit on how the French get to eat everything and stay thin without smoking. I hope you’re taking copious notes.
