  4. Hi Don! they are all really awesome, young man! 🙂 Thanx for your constant stop-overs by our international playground… I love the East Coast and I do miss Boston, Mass… My very best and friendly thoughts from Toulouse, France, “old Europe”… 🙂

      1. Hi Don! It’s been heart-breaking for us to watch the Boston recent tragedy… 😦 We lived in Houston, TX(NASA-area) for 5 years and we did visit quite a lot of your vast country, most of the national parks and big cities, among which Boston & Frisco have been our favourite ones, maybe because of their European “ambiance”… 🙂 Last but not least: all our friends in Houston were “East Coasters”, not one from Texas! I’m serious.

        Sunny greetings, stay healthy & “cool”, young man! 🙂
