a new key board and so ,uch to say

hi everyone
i have had three beautiful days in paris: i love paris; in may; in the drizzle; in ,y gortex: lovely people; delicious food; beautiful buildings; everything:
kathleen is here; we take the train to le puy tomorrow; but today i saw the red and white belize outside of notre dame , on a pole of a stop sign, and i felt a warm familiar feeling of being home;
the belize are the marks that show the path. they are the marks that kathleen and i will spend our days following; like the three kings followed the star:
there is a path that begins in paris; these marks are for those pilgrims. i can,t wait for our marks!
{i want to read a study of key boards: i understand the letter placement; that is easy: but why is a ! the normal key and a . is a shift? in france: i think the french are too cool to use these ! but maybe not; maybe these ! go with holding hands and kissing passionately in public; and using butter on everything: i think i love the french too,)
ok, i need to go to sleep; i hope you are all happy and well:
love
mary/mom/nonna
kathleen and i went to notre dame today and there was a mass, we stayed, during the peace to your neighbor part; she said "peace, pilgrim", i laughed: i think that will be our mantra

I had a huge DQ ice cream cone in honor of your b-day yesterday! We were in Hinckley on our way to Pathfinder. Troy had his own little cup with a dog biscuit. We are back to winter today, actual little snow spitballs this morning. Hope you are warmer. omm&imh Ginny
