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.

Fall Colors




This year's display of fall colors has been incredible. After a dry summer, a cool fall without a freeze, and no rain at all until last week the leaves stayed on the vines and the trees long enough to give us a glorious show. It is interesting to see the different colors the vines turn depending on the variety of grape. The sweeping vineyard landscapes are stunning as is the vivid yellow outside our front door this morning.
