A bookstore window in Rouen, France showing books banned in the USA .

My husband got a solid week and 1/2 out of it. Gods know how long he will work the shingles shot in a couple of weeks.

Bonsoir from the banks of l’Orge where the owls carry on till dawn.

I have a garmin that alerts my spouse if I trip in the woods or stop too abruptly. A cloud of ravens would be far more useful.
