Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
Hope they had a good journey.
ReplyDeleteAh they've arrived - now the fun begins!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I bet Monty and Bok are enjoying their new play mates.
ReplyDeleteIt's all perfect!
DeleteThere are commercial chemicals that you can buy to put into the pool water to stop that kind of thing - increase the levels until the water's clear!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! No doubt some wonderful childhood memories will be created. Enjoy yourselves.
ReplyDeleteThey've been excited for weeks. I'm sure you're right, Elaine... wonderful memories being built-up.
Deleteand dogs?..
ReplyDeleteThey're a bit wary of Monty... he's about twice their size. But they adore Bok. Of course the dogs love them!
DeleteAh, the summer grandchild/cro fiesta begins. Have a wonderful time with your babies.
ReplyDelete... and random strangers from Canada.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThey made it! Nice picture.
ReplyDeleteI know how happy you are. Your grandsons are beautiful boys. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful summer, Cro!
ReplyDeleteLove that picture. Have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteOh oh oh...I do believe you have the best looking grandsons in the whole world...I'm feeling pangs of grandchild envy...
