I am in France, Teddy is working

Dave and I left for La Belle France on Sunday to visit our old friends Harry and Susan. They live in the Dordogne.  Actually it is a research trip because Susan has just gut renovated her kitchen.  It was necessary to travel over 3,000 miles to do this.  It is very important to do excellent research.

While we are gone, Ted the destroyer continues to work.  Yesterday, I received an order from him. Pick the color of your exterior or be damned.  So, without even trying it on the house, I did. HC-4 , Hawthorne Yellow by Ben Moore. Authentic Yankee New England color ( get it, Nathanial Hawthorne? why it's yellow and not red, I don't know.)
