Otherwise, gray morning here in Monterey, listening to my wife singing along to Joni Mitchell as she whips up her own pancake batter from scratch. A Sunday morning tradition. And the world will live as one
Just like last year, this year's projects at work seem to have key milestones coming up in July-August, so summer vacations will be short and probably around e/o July, early August. Since our kids are all "growed' up", our vacation schedule are no longer constrained by academic calendars anyway...
You'll get a prime opportunity to ride the high-speed TGV from Paris to Rennes, and also the SNCF web site and its bizarre mix of French and English languages. Anyway, July is a great time to come and visit; weather should be OK if not on the hot side. Europeans think a hundred miles is a long way. Americans think a hundred years is a long time.
Otherwise, I'll be in LA/Vegas or at least a week later in July for NN10... In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
