A good Fall

As we enter winter, a look back on the past season could make one think we have an exciting life here.

Autumn started with a trip to Tuscany, which required a lot of preparation work on Laura's part. Total success! The three of us met with my mother-in-law and brother-in-law Rob, and had a wonderful experience there. We highly recommend this part of Italy, despite its extensive use for chick flicks. We immerged with delight in italian renaissance, and hilly countryside. Nathan walked on the finest marble floors, like the one in Sienna's cathedral, as he was adding a fourth country to his list.

Then we received Alison's visit, who took on discovering Paris, before launching into her new career. She left us with a few nice pics of Nathan and us, like the one on this post.

About a week after she had left, one day, I got a text message from a french cell phone, saying about as much as "salut c yves" -"hi Yves here". Yes, our reverend had just arrived in the city of lights, totally unannounced. No matter when and where, it's always good to see that fellow!
