Happy Jean Baptiste Day!

From Montreal Gazette

Wish I could have been in Montreal to celebrate as planned, but alas and alack, it was not to be.  My poor pet sitter was having a week from Hades.  The proverbial straw was my basement flooding Friday night after the torrential rains in Connecticut.  I thought it better to return home to manage domestic affairs than to continue on as planned.  A good choice. 


I'm fortunate that my work sends me to Vermont once or twice a year.  So next trip, I'll continue on to Montreal.  And, of course, at some point in the future, will visit Quebec City, hopefully with Dr. DeePlaCeeBoooo to accompany me.  Can't wait!

Despite driving through rain storms and getting my car washed, some Three-Pines back-roads dust still clings in the crevasses of my car.  Je me souviens.
