I have said my blog is a tracing of my life’s history all is here since birth. My family enjoys it and my sons hopefully will carry it on for the family memories. I have mentioned on several posts about it but since took new pictures in my last trip this week so be it ! This time let me show in my personal blog pictures of places not in your tourist trail but firmly in my trails, Therefore, this is my take on 36 rue Noefort of Meaux !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I.

36 rue Noefort of Meaux, this is where my story with France began, when I met a young lady native of the town of Meaux back in September 1990, and as the saying goes, the rest is history and a beautiful one indeed falling short due to her cancer that took my dear late wife Martine in April 2018. And my eternal thank you to her for giving me 3 wonderful good young men thanksfully still with me, Of course, once in town stopping by here first is a must,

It all started in Meaux , in departément 77 of Seine-et-Marne in the region of Île-de-France of my belle France. Many posts on the town and surroundings, This will be more personal ,and I will cherish it forever, Thanks for reading my blog since November 26 2010, a way to unleash my thoughts and memories. This marvelous story of meeting a French girl in Meaux, coming to see her family and her in September ;1990, she then, went to see my family in Ormond Beach Florida in December 1990, and before getting there I asked to marry me and live there and she agreed ! We were married at the municipal courthouse City Island Daytona Beach December 27, 1990 wonderful rollercoaster ride and 3 wonderful good boys later , she asked me to come to live in France and so I did in August 2003 to start my job, later join by the rest of the family in December 2003,
It was time to see nostalgic places again for us. My sons convince me again to go to Disneyland Paris for the 6th time ! and we did. However, before and after , we stop by dear Meaux, and the small humble house at 36 rue Noefort. This time we got lucky to see the neighbor in the front garden and spoked with her, she remember the grandmother Fourré and my wife Martine, This was the house visited several times thereafter even already living in France This is a must to stop in the city, as the patio house out back still is land passed on to the family now own by a sister, They had finished with the renovations ,and could see the out patio house where we first exchange her passion; gardening, Never to forget the house where I first met my dear late wife Martine 36 rue Noefort, we walked for so many times together and with my parents and little boys. Memories forever, Hope you understand. Thanks


Across the street are the dormitories of the Gendarmerie Nationale or nationa police force, Her yougest brother is a municipal police officer living in town nearby, OMG ,there are/were so many walks by here ,and pushing the baby stroller with 3 boys of closed ages, and shopping the local nearby shops and eateries, so many memories…. Now sadly, even more so……
