A 2 week Transition

From Pau to Sierra Madre...
    A 2 week transition time - that's why there wasn't a posting last week!


The week of February 2, I enjoy the views of the traffic.


The day before I leave I notice someone else is leaving, too.
A much farther place than I.



The morning of February 6 at 5:00 am, we go the stairs to meet the taxi.


At Pau-Pyrenees Airport
On to Paris!



Waiting at Charles de Gaulle Airport Paris


Dave picks me up at LAX - what a mad house. 🛬


Now I know I’m home.

Dave drives me to see the devastation in Altadena

Then to Altadena…




There’s more, but it’s too much to imagine.

On a lighter note - We go to the Arboretum

The carriage house…

Queen Ann Cottage

The adobe -
 a fancier adobe than the one Uncle Michy was born in

Even the Arboretum was
affected by the fire

The week and a half I’ve been “home”, I mostly was reorganizing and dealing with the washing machine repair and the “snaking” of the pipelines from the utility room. (You don’t need to know the details)

Valentine’s Day Reward…
Anthony takes us to Gus’s BBQ

So ends my transition week home.
