        Yes that would be long enough to enjoy the seclusion, but a return to civilisation would become a necessity after a while.

        Sandee, that’s what we thought at first, that we can afford. However, with economy and thoughtfulness, it was possible! It is true that you are farther from Paris than we are and the transatlantic flight is probably expensive. But there are all kinds of opportunities.

        Have a fine day!

    What a cool place. We would love to visit there, but not live there. It would be scary surrounded by water on such a small island.

She loves using vivid colors and flowing shapes in her oil paintings as well as creating edible landscapes.

    I love this kind of image, probably because I love the sea. But I wonder if I have to stay there…
    I am not sure for a long time…
    Thank you, Sandee for this new and fascinating place. Of course, new for me!

    What a beautiful place to visit and I had never heard of it. This could be an overnight or (more likely) a two night trip for me and they have boat tours. You sent me down a rabbit hole researching this place and I thank you! ramblinwitham

  9. Deborah – South San Francisco, CA – I am a Wise Woman who has been on a spiritual journey for many years. My wisdom was not gained through a higher education but through the University Of Life and all the insight, knowledge gained through the pain of trials and tribulations on the path of weeping to healing. Though I have come a long way, I am not done yet! I still have much wisdom to gain, more growth through pain, and the beauty of spirit that come by continual shedding of the old to receive the new! Sweet Blessings!

    At first I thought that was Brother Island in the San Pablo Bay – but the Thimble Islands give off a similar vibe even on the other side of the country.

    Imagine having an island. That could be fun sometimes.

    The towel hanging from the oven at Ms. RW’s house was a play on something being tres chic. She’s not much into chic, so she put up tres sheep just to be funny.

    Hope you and Mr. Zane are having a great week, hugs!

  18. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    WOW!!!! Love that, we’d like a couple of weeks there! Happy Purrsday Sandee! XX
