Voyage long et très fatiguant mais bon....Sans histoire.
A la suite d'un voyage comme celui-ci je constate ce qu'il y a d'inhumain dans ce moyen de transport. Incomfortable, fatiguant, long.....je me sens comme du bétail humain....la bande sonore de cette journée pourrait être un meuglement et bêlement continu de bêtes entassées les unes sur les autres.. Rien n'étant fait pour leur confort.
Robert lui dit qu'iil a été "Faxé"!
Heureusement nous sommes arrivés à bon port.
A refaire l'année prochaine dans le sens inverse.
Oui, nous sommes tous les deux tristounets de quiter cette belle provence, la maison des prés et ses beaux petits moutons.......
Mais
Nous reviendrons l'année prochaine!
Le chateau de Lourmarin attendra
Les oliviers, vieux deja, nous attendrons
Il y aura d'autres petits moutons,
Et le Barbu du cours Mirabeau tiendra la guarde....il en a vu d'autres....
A l'année prochaine...
Husband banned from Target ( a big US chain store)
My bride insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Target. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my bride is like most women - she loves to browse.
Yesterday my dear bride received the following letter from our local Target.
Dear Mrs. Adelmann,
Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our
complaints against your husband, Mr. Adelmann, are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras.
1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3' in Housewares. Get on it right away'. This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money.
5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway.
6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he would invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged.
8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' EMTs were called.
9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.
10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.
11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme.
12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels.
13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'
14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'
And last, but not least:
15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while, and then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.' One of the clerks passed out.
Bien arrives en Provence....le Paradis. Les pieds dans la lavande, devant un vignoble a l'ombre des oliviers......
Quel bonheur.!!
Les popotames allergiques à la magie....
…read moreDepuis quatre mois (et quarante ans avant)j e me promene en Floride avec mon carnet a dessin, aquarelle de poche et fait mes petits gribouillis. J'ai vu des coins splendides et croyais connaitre vien cette bizarre peninsule. Je voulais mettre plein de photos que j'avais prises sur Ipernity.
Mais voila.
J'ai decouvert Clyde Butcher. Il se promene partout avec ses bottes en caoutchouc, son chapeau et son appareil antique et magique pour nous faire des photos de reve. Comment vous montrer les miennes quand il y celles-ci:

Allez les voir. La Floride c'est plus que Miami, Miami Vice, la plage et les gratte-ciels-noix de coco.
Le temps se rechauffe beaucoup dans le sud de la Floride. L'ete est la.
Nous allons remontons la cote Est des Zusa pour retrouver la fraicheur du Connecticut. Nous faisons toujours des pauses un peu partout, histoire de faire du tourisme...
Retour en ligne debut mail
Bises a tous.
