Last weekend I was in Paris with Steve (my biggest little brother) and his traveling band of misfits. Paris is a big, complicated city, so I'm going to classify our experiences there as either Good For Brian or Bad For Brian. This is the metric that I'm sure concerns all of us most.

Sounds like Paris was mostly good for Brian! Thanks for posting a picture of Steven so I know he is alive and somewhere in Europe:)
ReplyDeleteBTW, which one of my old cameras are you using to take and post these pictures? Hmmmm????
