Loving life (so far) in Crest

It's funny how Mary keeps reminding me that it's the "honeymoon" period (I had explained to her some of the feelings many people have when spending a year away from home like this) but I'm really loving life here. Yes, it's all different and new (some great things, some difficult) but the pace of life in general seems to be more reasonable. Anyway, here you can see some of the people who have been incredibly welcoming. Sandrine does have some fabulous friends and we're so appreciative of how they've included us in their lives. It doesn't hurt that there's another Fulbrighter who lives 40 minutes from here, Margaret. She and her son, Jed, joined us for a day at Vallon Pont d'Arc and the Gorges d'Ardèche.
