Brian,

So nice to see you again. And not to worry about J - his glass is always half full and he’s very forgiving.

Carol and ruralcarrier,

You are both very welcome but I wish I had something more interesting or exciting to write about.

Lesley,

I know it’s not your major holiday but hopefully you and Shirley will have a happy Thanksgiving Day.

Linda,

Hope you enjoy the Thermidor as much as we did. Not quite as good as Antoine’s used to be but still very enjoyable.

David,

It’s always a pleasure and so glad you got to meet some of our family.

Luda,

If things remain status quo we will look forward to more time next November but we enjoyed what little we had.
