Vignettes from Jim and Emmy's years of travel


France

Limoges, Marketplace

From Clermont-Ferrand to Limoges, the drive on the “little road” was almost work. We went up and down many hills, and the rough road was full of twists and turns. The dandelions were out in full force, making many fields as yellow as the fields of hops in Germany.

In Limoges Emmy liked an 4.5 by 6.25 inch enameled porcelain picture, in a nice frame, and went back to see it time and again. When she was finally ready to buy, the store was ready to close for lunch. That only stopped her for an hour though, we had lunch in our RV near the river, then came back to buy her picture.

The young lady at the Limoges Syndicat d’Initiative (Tourist Office) gave us good information and a lot of literature about places to see and things to do as we head south from here.

As you may well believe, that lettuce really was green when this photo was taken. Lettuce, even in a photo, fades after 25 years in a garage, in desert heat.
