Devastated 11-13-15

I had prepared another post for this day, but in deference to what just happened here in Paris I will perhaps post it later.   We have at least 128 dead and another 99 in critical condition, they attacked several places, one of which Deb and I pass almost every time we take our bus home.  My heart is heavy for France and the Parisians.  Stay vigilant because there are many who will rejoice at this development.

I was completely unaware of what happened until Deb actually called the apartment sometime after mid-night.  There were sirens going by towards one of the major hospitals, that is located nearby, every few minutes for the rest of the night.  Things will be very different from now until the end of our visit in February.
