I use the blog format to share digital photographs and scrapbook layouts with my family. My husband, Bob, and I have three sons (two are identical twins), three daughters-in-law, and twin granddaughters. We moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to South Carolina in December 2005 and it was the best thing we ever did.

Fouquet's on the Champs Elysees

We stopped for a glass of wine at this restaurant and sat at the sidewalk cafe - and then a weird thing happened. A drunk guy who looked like Peter Sellers with wild hair sat on a bench directly in front of our table and seemed to be staring at us. He had a bottle of wine in his long coat, and at one point he removed the cork and threw it at a couple who were window shopping behind him. Then he got up, pulled out what looked like a pretty expensive digital camera and began taking pictures of the people at the cafe. Later he got up and a butter knife (probably from this cafe) dropped out of his coat onto the sidewalk, making a loud clatter. We thought for sure one of the waiters would escort him away, but no one seemed to see him but us. He eventually walked away, but returned, so we quickly finished our wine and left. A strange experience. If it hadn't been kind of scary and uncomfortable, it probably would have been funny!
