Christmases

This is a photo I took at Mennetou-sur-Cher, a village about 40 minutes by car from Saint-Aignan,
during Christmas week in 2004. Friends were visiting from California. I've always liked the picture.

P.S. Here's something I haven't mentioned in a while: It's soon going to be time for me to go back to see my doctor. It will be a routine visit. I haven't felt the need to go see him for a couple of months now. My arthritis pains are greatly diminished these days. Who knows why? I haven't taken any pain killers like Ibuprofen or Tylenol in a long time. I haven't had any more swelling caused by inflammation of my wrist joints. I still don't know what caused the whole episode I experienced back in September, which sent me running to see my primary care physician and then have blood work done and X-rays taken. Thank goodness all that's over, at least for now.
