Welcome

We are a retired American couple living in France, enjoying the good life with our cats. Our house is in a small hamlet among the Ste. Foy vines. We also have a sailboat that the male half of the spousal unit sailed across the Atlantic in the summer of 08. When the weather warms we will start to visit the sailing ports of Europe. Our stories chronicle our life in France: the good life, the hard life, and the sailing life.

Lazy Sunday


It is gloriously sunny out today but cold. Consequently we are spending Sunday in front of the fire. This does not suit some of the family. Outside there are chickens to chase and pigeons to watch. In the warmth of the sun may be even a frankie will come out. A frankie is a little salamander that scurries around the house warming itself against the stone walls. Dante and Calypso are very good at catching frankies by the tail who are equally good at escaping them because they shed these tails! With no possibility of going outside Dante decides to follow our lead and be lazy.
