Welcome to Elaine's Retirement Journal

I retired from John Muir Health as a Project Manager on May 22, 2011 after several attempts at doing so.
This blog is to experience my new Projects as Project Manager, Leisure.
I have several other blogs related to all the Morgan's Over America- see links.
As my Sister and I went together on the same trip to Provence this summer, and as she is a much better writer than I am, I have provided links to her writing where appropriate.

PROVENCE 2013

Philip dropped me off at CDG Marriott for the night before I flew down to Marseille to meet the Lavender Ladies for our Provence Tour. Sister Lee and BFF Linda had arrived the night before, and made it to the villa before we did.

The next morning, we headed off to l'Isle sur les sorgue for the market,

That evening we went for wine tasting at Domaine Rouge Bleu.

The next morning we headed out to see the lavender fields. It was very windy with a touch of cold in the air.

After an afternoon rest, we went to a beautiful old town of Seguret.

The wind is howling outside and I am tired. Good night!
