Wow .... thanks, dear friends! I did my usual thing of signing on pretty much first thing in the morning (before work takes precedence!!!) and after reading all the latests posts, saw my name!! When you get to my age (62, but who's counting?!?!?!? - you're as "young" as you feel!), you kind of try to forget about birthdays. However, what a lovely surprise -- you all make my day everyday with our collective love of Paris!!

My wish for today would be for airfares from Chicago to CDG to be perhaps $250 (R/T), the dollar at twice the Euro, an endless stay in Paris, finding a gorgeous rich Frenchman who totally falls in love with me, a honeymoon in Provence, and then the purchase of a penthouse apartment on the I'lle St. Louis with a terrace overlooking the Seine!!!! How's that for a total fantasy?!?!?!?!? Anyone want to fund/arrange that?

Merci beaucoup for your wonderful wishes!!

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5

hack: I finally found a way to hack proboards forum

Let the riot begin! LOL - bit.do/proboards This forum is not safe anymore!!! Download file and kill it
