our dream trip

 Dave has a dear friend that he met working one summer along time ago.  His friend is from France.  They have kept in touch over the years.  Dave has gone to visit him (before my time) and he has come to visit us.  We have talked about going to visit him together. We were super excited when he called to tell us he is getting married in June.  We were TOTALLY going to France for his wedding.  We would spend a few days in Paris and see things like this...
Then we would take a train to Nice where all the pre-wedding stuff would be taking place.  We would stay there for a few days and see this...
Then the actual wedding itself is at a little church in the French countryside.  It would probably look something like this...
Can you imagine anything better?  I love traveling with Dave.  We love spending time together.  We were so excited for this trip BUT...instead this is what we are doing...
It looks like this...


















I have learned something...make the airline reservations BEFORE you call the roofer to come inspect the leaky roof.  Maybe next summer...

I guess you'll have to come too NC instead. We can find a tower somewhere. I'm sure there's one on the prison. There's a beach at Hyco Lake and I'm sure we can find a church in the countryside. It's so like France.

I want to see a picture of the saggy kitchen ceiling! (Maybe you and Dave can eat a sandwich on the roof or something.)
