How exciting is this! Several months ago I discovered that a fellow blog friend, Terri in Cedar Key, Florida, was planning a visit to the French village where my family live. Even more surprising was the fact she and her dh would actually be arriving there the very same day as us! Needless to say, we have been in touch and arranged to meet for a chat and a glass of wine during the week they are there. When I told my sister-in-law where they will be staying, she said it was just a short walk.............across the square, past the fountain, under the plane trees to the tiny 'impasse' where their village house is located. Doesn't that sound like the perfect evening stroll?
Note: As I'm having major ongoing photo upload/post/save problems with Blogger, I'm hoping this will post. Is anyone else still having problems? It's been well over a week now and literally thousands of Blogger subscribers are cramming the message boards with complaints and threats of moving to other blog sites such as Typepad.
Edited: Seems to have posted but reverted to Sunday's date - oh well, hope you can see it - meanwhile the frustration continues.
How lovely to meet a fellow blogger. Hope you have a great time.
ReplyDeleteGee Mary, how great that you will be meeting a blogger all the way across the ocean. How strange it worked out they will be close by your brother also.

Bon voyage Mary! I hope you have a wonderful time. I am so jealous.
ReplyDeleteIt really WAS such a coincidence, Mary. Not only will we be in the SAME village, but we'll be there at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI've really enjoyed getting to know you these past few months and I'm really looking forward to now meeting you in person.
I will have laptop and camera in tow, so I'll be able to capture our meeting for my blog.
Six more days and I'll be on my way! Talk to you soon.

Oh yeah, I miss Typepad. Too bad you have to pay. It's much easier to use than blogger and more dependable. I kept getting error messages when I tried loading todays post. Had to keep at it and I couldn't for the life of me change the date on a post over the weekend. Oh well Blogger is free so I guess we really can't complain too much!

Oh, Mary, you'll be going pretty soon! I am so excited for you!
ReplyDeleteI love your recent pictures. The porch looks great and I am sure will be fabulous when you come back and deck it out for fall.
I'm getting settled back in after being away for a few days.

PS -- Sorry you're having blogger problems. I know that must be a pain!
Hello Mary, I can't imagine how annoying it would be to have problems with posting on your blog. I'm frustrated when my computer seems slow at times. I am very happy for you to meet up with your friend in France. The pair of chairs are so charming. Are they yours? Great colors.
ReplyDeleteI hope things improve on your blog.
Hugs and love...Jeanne
How fun that you get to me a fellow blog friend while in France. I wish I was going with you. It sounds like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Penny
How incredible is that.That you both will be there at the same time.Sounds wonderful. Wish I was going with you.
ReplyDeleteHope you have wonderful time.
It is indeed a small world. I know you will enjoy your meeting. I'm so pleased about your trip, and I can't wait for you to return and share it all with us. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe blogger problem would make me nuts.
My theme through the comments today has been "synchronicity or chance"! That is too, too much of a coincidence!!! Fun!
ReplyDeleteNo blogger problems on my end.
