We had been home one week. Richard got his monthly old-person magazine put out by the Association of Ancient Rinkled People. (They keep sending stuff to Dad at our address, too!) Anyway, it had an article of the 5 best places to retire abroad. And there, in black and white, listed as a totally awesome place to spend your golden years, was the region of Languedoc-Roussillon, France: as in Nîmes, Uzès and Le Grau du Roi.
Well, you think that didn’t raise some interest around the old homestead! We did stop at every realtor in the south of France and look at the pictures in the windows. We did grab 4 or 5 publications listing real estate for sale in the départments of Ardèche, Vaucluse, Gard, Drôme, Hérault, Landes, Pyrénées-Atlantiques and Hautes-Pyrénées, but we did not put a down payment on any property. I am regretting that caution at this moment.
I’ve always said that I was going to buy a villa in the south of France… you never know!
