Oooh la la, a tag!


The Beautiful Miss Bella of BellaMcBride tagged me. I was to go to the 6th folder on my computer, choose the 6th photo, post it and write about it. What fun!

This is a picture of my most handsome husband in Paris, taken two years ago in June. We had just arrived and went for a long long walk to get the "jammed in an airplane seat for 8 hours" kinks out of our bodies, and to try and stay awake until the Parisiens went to bed...or until 9:00 pm. We stayed at a little family hotel in the Marais district and wandered over to the Place des Vosges. This was taken in that general vicinity.

I loved the architecture. Those smooth, slate roofs, the tall, symmetrical windows and the graceful, stone arches lured my eyes to dart here and there, taking in as much as I could. I wished I didn't have to sleep - there was so much to see and do.

I'm not going to tag anyone, but if you would like to share a photo (6th folder, 6th photo), please let me know and I'll come on over and take a look.

For now, I'm going to take a trip down memory lane via that folder and look at ALL the pictures from that wonderful, wonderful trip!

    Hi Lorrie,

    That's a great picture...did you email me your address for the package you won? Please put your name in the subject line along with Valentine Giveaway. It may have gone to my spam folder.

    Hi Lorrie!
    What a fantastic 6th picture from you 6th folder! Thanks for playing!
    I'm so jealous that you are seeing bits of spring! On the East Coast the only spring we are experiencing is the snowbanks are maybe a bit smaller...maybe?

    I do enjoy double clicking and making these photos full size.
    I just did this but as I was not at liberty to post the 6th/6th and did the 6th from the bottom instead.

Thank you for your comment. I read and value each one, cherishing the connections we can make although far apart. Usually, I visit your blog in return, although if you ask a question I try to contact you directly.
