    Love your pics! Le Coupe Chou is Jim’s all time favorite old style Parisian restaurant. Bernie looks great and so do you. That French hear agrees with you both.

    À bientôt!

          Jim says he has been going to the Coupe Chou since 1992.

    Tell Bernie that his fit and trim look is mighty fine — and that it’s great for ANY age!

    Keeping fingers crossed for good news from the publisher. I, for one, want to read that book! You both look slim and trim and very happy. Say hello to Bernie for me.

      I will tell Bernie. This is just an agent…who would still have to find a publisher. But it could be a step closer. Such a lot of work!

    What exciting news! I’ll keep my fingers crossed that your manuscript will be accepted and published. Sounds like things are looking up, especially if the shower works. You’re both looking trim and debonair .

    Love seeing the pix. The neighborhood, even though not too far from last year’s, looks a little quieter. Good luck with the agent.

      Actually, we are on rue St. Paul in our usual neighborhood. The apartment is only 3 blocks from our old one. That plus the lift is why I selected it. In reality, now that I’m here, I could have probably done the steps but wasn’t sure about that back in Feb. when we had to book. There are both good and bad about this apartment but overall we’re making it work. The heat is the big issue right now and there’s nothing much we can do about that. All the stores are sold out of fans.

    Keeping my fingers crossed that agent accepts book and turns out to be a very aggressive agent! Bon chance!

      Yes, special delivery overnight! Actually, the management company brought one over this afternoon. Good service to a request sent about 9am this morning.
