Good Morning everyone.

Eldest daughter, Carolyn, is back from France safe and sound!

I went down to Madison to pick her up on Monday afternoon. Her bus was to get into the Union on the U.W. Campus at 7:00 pm. I took a book down the Lake Mendota, a stone's throw from Memorial Union, and read along the lake front. (gorgeous day with balmy temps and blue skies.) At 7:00 I decided to stroll over to the parking lot, as her bus was due in around 7:10. I glanced for the bus, not seeing it I was going to walk around a bit. I looked at this woman across the parking lot and nodded. As I started to walk away I heard, "Dad!!!"

My goodness... I didn't expect to see her, and found out the bus was a few minutes early, and had already left. She was looking very French, with her scarf and sunglasses.

We talked the entire 2 hour trip back home.
