Humble Beginnings

This is my first attempt at blogging, so we'll see how it goes. I've often thought of my journal as a record for the future, and so I write it as if I were sitting talking to someone. It makes it more fun to write, in any event. I suppose, then, this will be a much more... public version of the same.

In any event, I am starting this in response to several requests to "stay in touch," etc, while away in Paris. I plan to update it at least once a week, if not more often, with takes of my excitement and adventure. We'll see. I've heard it said that in life, one should

1) Have fun
2) Make a memory, and
3) Live to tell the tale

It doesn't do much good to live to tell if I don't actually do the telling, so here I go!
