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.

No need walking the street. Most all shops are closed until September, as most of France is on Holiday (vacation) the month of August. So, it’s laundry, packing and diary writing.

Coffee social with the church group at an apartment overlooking downtown Paris. Very enjoyable day. Finally received our mail delivery from Dallas today (one day late).

One day trip for David to London and I finish packing for the trip home.

Homeward Bound! And really looking forward to being with family, neighbors, and friends.
Editor’s Notes:
This is officially the end of Chapter 1 in Georgia’s journal. Chapter 2 starts August 31st after a 3 week stay over in the U.S., in which they went all over the place in a very short time. Georgia’s journal consisted of their life here in Paris (and Europe in total) so she did not write during these three weeks.
She did however take a lot of photos of the different places they went while they were in the U.S., and I am going to piece them together and post them here for the next few days, and then pick up on August 31st back in France.
