We were excited to learn that our Belgian friends and former neighbors, Claude and Elizabeth, are planning to visit us in August! They are the people who we have been spending New Years the last years with in Normandy in their lovely mansion. We are very excited about the visit and this will be only the second time that our European friends have visited us at Samish Island (the first were Jean-Pierre and Marie-Paule last year. Tradition is that we ask our visitors to bring a flag of their country/state so that we can fly it on the flag pole overlooking the beach (fortunately for Claude, our previous Belgian visitors had already brought one).
As the dollar continues to tank against the Euro we hope more of our European visitors will be coming to the U.S.
