Sunrise, sunset

There's a gorgeous harvest moon setting in the west this morning.  We're right at the autumnal equinox, that most pleasant time of year with 12 hours of daylight. Sunset and sunrise are both at 7.  

Best of all, the weather is perfect. After a smoky hot August, what a pleasure breathing cool, clean air again.  Who needs the gym, when you can spend the morning working outside?

We are s-l-o-w-l-y getting over the nasty jet lag. I have a lot of respect for people who do this frequently.  I still wake up around 2 am, but can usually go back to sleep for a couple of hours. Then I feel all wonky again about 4 in the afternoon, which is 1 am in Paris.  It feels good being home. Paris may be the food capitol of the world, but nothing beats simple home-cooked meals.
