Since travel to Europe is not allowed during the pandemic, we can only dream about visiting there in the near future. Therefore, over the next couple of days - as a public service - I am featuring some photographs of my trip to France and Italy, taken several years ago. The photo above was taken in the Rue Cler neighborhood of Paris. What I like most about it, besides the beautiful streetscape, is that it shows ordinary Parisians waiting for the bus, going home after work. How lucky they are to live in such a beautiful city. But what I really want to know is how they can afford to live there while most Americans can't? It seems so unfair. Perhaps the French government might consider a subsidy program for Americans who want to move there, in hopes of bringing back those funs times during the 1920s with all those starving American writers and artists. I'll e-mail my buddy President Macron today. I'm sure he'll love the idea.
