Tom--there is a Paris in Virginia also. Dear friends of ours, Jim and Mary Ruos, lived near there. Jim has passed, unfortunately, but it always gave us kind of a giggle to travel to Paris..

I lived and worked just outside of Birmingham for a while and it is certainly worth a visit. I wish that they spoke English there, though... Their native language is "Brommie" which bears only a superficial resemblance to what we consider to be modern English. I got along well after a bit, but will not forget listening to the night watchman at the place I was working (next to Spaghetti Junction) tell me a story for at least 10 minutes and not understanding a single sentence. But I nodded my head at the appropriate pauses and that seemed to satisfy him.
