Arriving at Charles De Gaulle Airport
We arrived Charles De Gaulle airport about 9AM local time. I was never even asked to open my carry-on of canned pickles, spaghetti sauce, mayonnaise, etc. The weather was rainy again and cool.
Upon arriving home very exhausted at 10AM Paris time (3AM Dallas time) we took a much needed nap (both of us knowing it to be the wrong thing to do). It’s unpacking time and David ventured to the office in preparation for his Monday AM trip to Spain.
Beautiful rain storms today.

Back From a 3-week Vacation in the U.S.
After a 3 week USA adventure of working and semi-vacation and becoming re-acquainted with our home in Southlake, a picnic with the family at our Cedar Creek lake property and an exceptional time visiting the beautiful mountains of Creede, Colorado, being with more family - we departed for Paris.
Editor’s Notes:
I know they had many more photos of their trip back home but I wasn’t able to locate any from the picnic. If I run across any I will post them to this entry.

Back to Southlake Texas
Well David and Georgia spent a good few weeks up at their cabin in Creede Colorado and now they made it back down to their house in Southlake Texas before the flight back to Paris. This photo is one Georgia took of her garden before they flew back to Europe.
The caption on the back reads: 22. Southlake yard - Aug 1991

Are You New to This Blog?
If you are new to this blog please jump over to the about pages for a little information to understand what these post entries relate to in the life of Georgia. This blog was setup to recount the journal entries she did while she lived in Paris France and Munich Germany.
We are at the end of chapter one, their first trip back home to the United States after being gone several months. Each entry in this blog corresponds to an entry in her journal. Please read the About page for more info about this blog, and Georgia for more information about Georgia.
Editor’s Notes - August 17-27, 1991 in Creede
This time period David and Georgia flew home to the United States. Along with visiting everyone at the house in Southlake Texas they took a trip up to their property in Creede Colorado. These two photos were taken during the time in August when there were in Creede.
David purchased this property sometime around the age of 19-21 when he was in the Navy. I think he said he purchased it for around $3,500. The motor home is sitting where the driveway is located and the cabin now sits just off the photo behind where the motor home is sitting.
This image above is Adelyn (Harold’s wife, David’s Brother), Georgia, and Mary Christal (Raymond’s wife, David’s brother). Mary also had a cabin in Creede and pass away a few years before Georgia.
David and Georgia will be back in France in September 1991 and we will resume the journal entries at that time (in a few days) after a few photo posts of their trip home.
