Back to normal

My friends, it's "rentrée" time. This French word means "back to school", but also so much more. The "end of the summer", also linked to "back to work" (after much longer summer vacations than our American friends).  For us the "normal" life will start here in Santa Barbara.

I am sorry for not having written much over the summer. We arrived in California seven weeks ago, and getting everyone settled, unpack the container and being constantly surprised and astonished kept me so busy that writing was far off.
