Cote d'Azur

Not much new going on. The republican primary race is like a long hallucination. I've seen some quotes put up from the Reagan days, and from the Reagan-Bush debates that show the GOP was a far different group of people just a single generation ago. Stuff they were saying then would be considered lefty-liberal today. What happened???

But anyway, I've been on vacation for a week, Off to the south of France and the Card Player's home territory around Juan les Pins. It was nice to relax and get a bit of sun. Plus, we did our part for the economy: came home with marmalade, pottery, glass, and wine. Resisted the paintings, and the small Calder mobile that would really be nice here next to the couch. Yeah, in my dreams!
