"For Cynthia and Grandmère Mimi"
Jim at JindalWatch put together this video in honor of his niece, Cynthia, and me. Cynthia lives in Houma, Louisiana, and we both left our homes to escape Gustav. It's beautiful. Jim, I loved that you used the picture of Our Lady of the Driveway and that you posted the Latin for the "Hail Mary".
Thank you. You made me cry. I seem to be crying quite a bit lately. People are so very kind.

Very lovely - I got a bit teary myself at the very opening. A huge cyberhug for you, Mimi.
ReplyDeleteI fly back to NOLA today after running away from it all for two weeks.
Oh - that made me cry too.
ReplyDeleteOh Grandmere Mimi - thanks for sharing that and thank you to Jim.
Paul, you were smart to schedule your trip at exactly the right time. I've seen some of your pictures. Sounds as if you had a lovely time. I hope that we can get together again before you finish your work in New Orleans.
ReplyDeleteHugs back to you, and to you, too, Fran.
I stole The Lady of the Driveway picture when I first saw it on Wounded Bird. The image of Louisiana at the end of the video I lifted from Oyster.
ReplyDeletePlagarism at its finest.
Jim, freely we steal, and freely we give. Anyone can use anything of mine, even without attribution. Attribution is nice, but not necessary.
ReplyDeleteOh, it made me cry, too.
ReplyDeleteLove you, Mimi.
Susan, thanks. I've played the video over quite a few times.
