I was very pleasantly surprised to find this letter in my mailbox one day last week. First, because it's a treat to find something besides bills and offers to fit me for cheap hearing aids in there. But most importantly because this was a note from a newly-made friend in Cadrieu! If you've read this blog regularly, you've already seen two pictures of the note's author, Christiane. She and her husband, Jean-Paul, live up the hill from Laury, and they are all very good friends. Christiane's note was newsy and fun...how they spent Christmas (yes, Pere Noel came and the grandchildren were captivated, at least until they opened their gifts. Then they ignored him!) and a description of New Year's Eve...'we laughed a lot and ate a lot.' It closed with news that they are going to the Pyrenees the end of Jan. and need to start getting in shape for that! A real letter, a beautiful stamp, a new friend...life is good!
