Remember the movie '
Peyton Place ' ??
It was filmed in Camden Maine.
The Camden Maine Church on main street.
This is taken at 2pm in the afternoon during a blizzard.
We had lunch, starting with '
delish' clam chowder, cornbread, a field green salad on top of crab cakes.
This is Andi heading over to the Camden Opera House for the ' Camden Pops' Christmas concert that was excellent. They even played a beautiful somber Chanukah song.
I adore the cello and violin , of which there were plenty.
The view from our seats.
A larger view of the Opera House from upstairs, in the very back.
The Camden Opera House could use a historical face-lift.
A bit of a nip & a tuck here and there.
You know, a face-lift while maintaining all the integrity of the original design.
A little fine tuning and accentuating of all the good ,
while minimizing the flaws, or what does not work anymore.
That's right , just little tightening up of it all.
In fact , come to think of it ,
I need a historical Face-Lift !!!

Before the fall.
.....and after.
We have found ' THE BUSH.'
My daughter Andi and ' The Nana. '
The cutting down of the tree.
TIMBER !!!
It was about 3 degrees, and I had made a mad dash for the car because my hands were freezing. I turned around and caught this shot of Andi helping Nana back from the Xmas Trees.
This is the machine used to wrap the tree in the plastic netting.
Wouldn't it be just like one of my adventures to find an Xmas Tree Farm owned by a Jewish man from the Bronx ? His name is Lowell and he sold his Xmas Trees to supplement his real job
The tree was nine feet tall, and it was all of $ 30.00 and a tip. Can you believe that ?
' Isn't it Romantic ? '
Very Romantic. ( for my brother and his little woman )
This is the floor, plan if you care.
Living room & dining room.
We went shopping everyday and had such delicious 'everything & anything' to nosh on.
The kitchen bar , and the kitchen had EVERYTHING you could possibly need for cooking and dining at home .
This was the master bath. It was great , it had washer & dryer ( hidden of course ) , and the elegant shell sinks.
My brother and sister in-law stayed in this room, it had the view of the Eiffel Tower.
This was the guest room.
This was my little bedroom, it had a beautiful bath, very euro high tech. I loved it.
These are typical city street views during the holidays.
This is taken in the 6th. near San Germaine, my turf.
I spend quite a bit of time in this area. ( 6th )
Everything is prettier in Paris .
Everything.

This is the view from our apartment ( in the 7th district ) in Paris where we all stayed.
More just shopping around .
