This'n That

We're adding bannisters to the wall side of our stairs.  I was reminded of the time we were visiting Red and Barbara in Dallas and Red called our attention to the fact that all four of us were using the handrails at the museum. 

Our stairs do have bannisters, but they are located where there is no wall.  The  new  "grab bars" will be set into the stairwell walls.  Can't wait to tell Red that we're going to be double handrail users!

I'm thoroughly enjoying "Paris In Love" by a woman named Eloisa James.  She, her husband (both teachers) and their children, a 15 year old boy and an 11 year old girl spent a year there.    Her view is one that will reverberate with anyone who has ever been there. 

Ebola thought:  no one has mentioned the fates of the flight attendants on board with a virus-laden passenger.    They should all be getting hazardous pay.
