It just seems so much slower and I would be truely contet living there. Living in Orange County CA one would think the same about all the beautiful scenery and living in a resort town it would be in constant excitement.

What could be better than a trip to France to start each day! I can't thank you enough. Also for your terrific recipes. We are enjoying your rhubarb and strawberry tarts (and pie!) at the moment and I have made Ken's chicken with apricots over and over again. During the last few years I have photocopied so many of your recipes that you are now my favourite 'cookbook!<br />Very best wishes, AngelaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-3759975837099947992011-04-21T08:10:24.055+02:002011-04-21T08:10:24.055+02:00And ron, yes, I'll try to post a photo of the ...And ron, yes, I'll try to post a photo of the house soon.

Because you and Ken write about your jour quotidien (daily life each day) and I get to hear about it, (secretly believing that reading your words puts me there in Saint Aignan, FRANCE !!!). <br /><br />It's not that what you do and write about is repeating itself for me... It's that you are looking and photographing what you are seeing THAT DAY from a different perspective perhaps that I might have when something inspires me to take a photo. Each of us looks at many of the same things each day, but then, all of a sudden one looks at it just a little differently (perhaps the sky or the people or the bark of the tree strikes our fancy...)<br /><br />KNOW that for me, I really would be disappointed if you or Ken stopped blogging. I am SO GLAD I somehow found you (I cannot remember how that happened :-0 ).<br />Walt, your photos are terrific and like I repeated (!!!) I don't feel you are repetitive.<br /><br />Please pass this on to Ken, I feel the same way about his blog!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04911284607089608538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-6818564051192587702011-04-21T06:06:06.702+02:002011-04-21T06:06:06.702+02:00Living here is like living anywhere

Please don't stop blogging. <br /><br />Five years ago I moved to southern Delaware from southeastern Pennsylvania. While I love living here in Delaware I do find that I don't have near the opportunities for taking interesting and beautiful pictures on this flat, coastal landscape with doubwides and new homes that I did in old growth Pennsylvania with its many hills and valleys, winding roads and many old structures. Your blog has inspired me to take more pictures of the beautiful flowers and plants around me but it is an effort here in southern Delaware unlike Pennsylvania where I had an abundance of photo ops. I make do. Please don't stop blogging. You're one of my favorite bloggers. Can we see a picture of your home?Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-32817615483104834332011-04-20T21:28:08.862+02:002011-04-20T21:28:08.862+02:00Speaking for myself, you can show the same picture...Speaking for myself, you can show the same pictures as often as you like....I love them.Starmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386841450183061541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-51476360073799782452011-04-20T21:17:20.834+02:002011-04-20T21:17:20.834+02:00How nice to see new friends posting comments.

Our "beach shack" in Malibu is paid off but last year we decided to lease it out. The husband retired this year at age 55. We have the freedom to come and go at any time but other than short trips up to Santa Barbara or down to San Diego, we really like staying around the homestead. If I had a blog it would be very boring. Your blog is very nice and I really enjoy the daily snapshots of your day.Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01903150759996794753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-27886270306207096012011-04-20T17:46:59.526+02:002011-04-20T17:46:59.526+02:00You have what I am killing myself to achieve, The ...You have what I am killing myself to achieve, The Simple Life.<br />Your Friend, m.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01049586061176648341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-10315281227292132572011-04-20T17:45:50.199+02:002011-04-20T17:45:50.199+02:00Thanks so much for these insights.
