I hope everyone has a happy Holidays and great new year. I'm taking some serious time off from blogging for the Holidays, but should be back before New Years.I have a great deal to talk about including my time with the Brooklyn Bridge, and a few other issues. I also will begin to shift my attention to France as soon as all of my work is done. My nephew and I have been holding down the fort and as you can tell we are both extremely excited for Christmas.
