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.

Ewe Made My Day


No one but KEG could/would come up with the best birthday present ever! My new scarf is sheepishly stylish, soft, and warm. She hand knit it from alpaca with the cutest sheep buttons for eyes. It's first outing was at lunch where the meal was fish. Tomorrow it goes to market.
I promised I would not post this until the complete tail was posted on www.thespinningmonkey.blogspot.com. Go check out close-up images and how it all began.
Merci mille fois!
