Thank you, Carmela.

Beautiful smile from Silverton, Colorado.  She's happy to bring back to life the Gold Rush era.

Hello everyone, Autumn is here.  This blog has finished its summer vacation... I blew out my birthday candles yesterday.... and the blog is ready to open again! The American Southwest, June 18th - July 2nd, 2019. We returned with so many photos, such good memories... Such a wonderful trip!  Now is the time to start sharing our experience/photos with everyone.  And it's time for the students themselves to be the makers of this blog.  Their photos, their comments. Participation will be from time to time, as I wait for them to send me their photos with short write-ups .   Let me get started with a few random group photos.  Here we are at The Great Sand Dunes in Colorado.  Dancing in Santa Fe!   Such fun !    This photo and the next one:  We are visiting Georgia O'Keeffe's house/workshop.   Such a beautiful house.  We also took the train!  Durango-Silverton.   See Day 22 (D-39)  of this blog.    And we were ALWAYS EATING!

I'm quite certain that no one is reading this at 3 o'clock in the morning, but that is our time to get going to the bus station in Grenoble as our coach for Geneva Airport leaves at 4 a.m. So here we are at the last day of this blog.  Before signing off, thank you all for having taken this first trip, the blog trip, with me.  You can return whenever you like and wherever in the blog that you like.  Just click on Archive at the left.  There you can choose the month, April, May or June, and the Day that you would like to look at.  On your smartphones, click the menu bar (   which is also called a hamburger button   ) and you will find Archive. 😀SOMETHING EXTRA: Our first state: Colorado!  --->  Here's a funny video about one Frenchman who went to Colorado and decided to stay there!    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dhfipv8LXRg   😆 I look forward, after the “real” trip, to my travelers sharing their experience with everyone. It’s time now to say “Bon Voyage!”
