Thank you so very much, I am both shocked and pleasantly surprised to have received this from you...not sure what to share, seems between the blog and Facebook...I'm a bit of an "open book", I've told everything! Thank you for sharing you wonderful experiences with us, I am going to comb through your blog for the post on Mt Everest, I believe Deb (who I adore)mentioned you wrote about your experience...how amazing.

That is a great exercise and I shall have to give it some thought. I've been fortunate to have seen some beautiful sights although sadly I don't have the pictures as evidence, just memories. <br /><br />I am in agreement with you on BC. I especially enjoyed the city of Vancouver, which is on my list of return visits.The Sweetbrier Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18446034519379910761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478044692546631790.post-10403890345299126122010-02-14T21:47:43.813-05:002010-02-14T21:47:43.813-05:00F: I married at 33 and had my baby at 37. by cho...F: I married at 33 and had my baby at 37. by choice.

Also, I see that Clermont Dessous is one place that I must include in my next trip to France. I love discovering others' favorite spots...<br /><br />Congratulations on the award + award receivers.

What a delight Francine to see your favorite places that bring you such happiness and I can certainly see why. My husband & I had such fun looking at the photos. The shot of you in the desert is incredible (the desert is his favorite place). Where you grew up and your parents live in France is so stunning. Easy for me to say, but I can't imagine leaving? But you have such an adventurous spirit and a love for all the beauty and creativity in our world, you can tell that feeds your soul and feeds you as a designer. I totally understand what you meant about being closer to your parents. I found out we are called the "sandwich generation" when we come to taking care of our parent(s) & still raising children. It truly does tug at your heartstrings to be so far apart doesn't it? If only I could clone myself. Hopefully one day, I will have the opportunity to hear more of your life's adventures; and yes, perhaps in France if I ever decide to make my home in the U.K for awhile. Enjoy your Valentines Day weekend Francine with your husband. Always such a pleasure to read more about you. xxDumbwit Tellherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18148671166061931241noreply@blogger.com
