Letter to the readership

Hello loyal readership,

This past week has seen the decline in the number of posts to the blog from almost every day to once every three or four days. There are a couple of reasons for this.

The first is that I forgot my camera and thus could not properly document some key events over the past two weeks. Most notably was the trip to IKEA a couple weekends ago. So no pictures, no blog story.

The second is that life has started to take over for both Mindy and myself here in France. We have been quite a bit busier over the last couple of weeks with our teaching schedules and as a result we are away from the house and not available to update the blog as much. Each blog post I should mention takes between half an hour to two hours depending on what I am adding and how much editing needs to be done.

Thirdly we both have been a little sick with colds the past two weeks. I was first and of course, as Mindy always says "What's your's is mine and what's mine is mine". As a dutiful husband I was obligated to pass along the cold. So the past couple of Sundays have been spent watching movies and episodes of Prison Break.

Anyway, enough of all that. It's time to get back on the wagon. We are planning on getting back into the tourist rhythm this weekend and are currently pondering several destinations that demand our attendance.

So stayed tuned for more and exciting news from France!!!

David (and Mindy)

P.S. We enjoy reading all the comments so please continue to make them!!!
