Maura, Thanks for sending your blog link to me. You have certainly chosen the right DeThorne to give it to, as I am better about writing than Patrick -- or could it be he just doesn't answer my messages -- hmmmm. Please be sure to have your picture taken with a mime so I can be sure you are totally immersed in Parisian high cullture. Glad you are having such a great time! c.d.

french men= french pigeons (evil, not afraid to get close to u, and dirty and smelly)

Maura bora! Loved the pictures. You have an amazing eye behind the lens of that camera. Sorry about the cold. Just came back from a road trip with uncle george's friends in arizona. we drove, over 8 hours to a border town in mexico, and they did not have filtered water or a convenience store for usa food. Border towns are a little scary, in particular, when you see more police then people. Uncle George's friends took us to a Peter Framton concert, i was a little concerned that i was at a concert of this nature, but what the heck! Uncle John called me yesterday to tell me that Caitlin is expecting a Baby.......baby news. Before you realize it, you will be loving french tomatoes. Hugs and much love, aunt joni 9/24/07
