howard + howard.
in france, these 2 lovely pigeons were always outside of my bedroom window. i would talk to them, and they would coo at me. when my late father was a boy, he had a pet pigeon named howard, and because i felt a peculiar connection to these pigeons, i called them both “howard.” sometimes i would come home and the howards would actually be IN my bedroom. but they never EVER left droppings, just an occasional feather. one early dawn, i was dreaming about wilma. in my dream we were snuggling and she was lying on my stomach like she so often does. i could actually even feel the weight and heat of her body on my belly. i was in that half dream state, happy but confused, i could feel wilma lying on my stomach but was confused about how she got to france. and then i opened my eyes to discover that a HOWARD was sleeping on my STOMACH !

NICE, france.
yesterday we went to nice. i was completely and utterly blown away with how beautiful it is there. i. never. knew. the downtown area is just a typical big city, but the old town is magnificent . . . it’s like you are stepping into an old colouring book. tiny narrow winding streets, colours that are un-fathomable, beautiful facades, doors, . . . it was simply magical. just look . . .

st paul de vence.
yesterday we went to ST PAUL DE VENCE. this is a beautiful medieval town in the south of france set on top of a hill. never have i seen a more magical or charming place. it was breathtaking.
(june is great in the south of france for the weather AND the lack of tourists)
