Merry Christmas!

A quiet winter stroll down the hill and across the bridge. Bourdeilles on the winter solstice.

 Merry Merry Christmas to all! 

Here is to wonderful adventures in 2015!!

Friday's Gift Idea, LilyOs

I promise not to mix business with pleasure very often.

I am encouraging you to think about offering a wearable piece of art during this holiday gift giving season. A LilyO's luxurious silk scarf.

I wear mine just about every day. A t-shirt, jeans, and my work of art, throw on a coat and away I go. Keep it simple.

Pierre, Jean Pierre, John-Boy Pierre.........

An American sports tradition honors it's heroes by promising that no other player will wear their numbers.

Small town France has a similar respect for those that have gone on to the great cafe in the sky. No one dares to sit in the venerable spot where, for better or worse, Pierre spent most of his life.

But things get problematic when you add in the chairs for the now-deceased Jean Pierre, Pierre Louis, Louis Pierre, Pierre Pierre, Bob Pierre, John-Boy Pierre.........

Bourdeilles - Paris??

Can there be similarities between Bourdeilles and Paris?

Let's start with the grey skies.

Bourdeilles has Left Bank and Right bank neighborhoods with distinct personalities in each.

Left bank neighborhood.

Right Bank neighborhood.

A monument and a church.

Shops along the main street.

Hidden passageways.

Amazing entry ways.

A public garden.

Of course an outdoor cafe. (Yes, all year round, but maybe more so on sunny days...)

And the random art installation.

Why would we ever want to leave home?

How Paris Presents Itself

For centuries, how Paris presents itself to women,

is not how it presents itself to men.
