Paris, Colombes, Bezons et Argenteuil

Each time we go to Paris, we stay with or see my friend of 30+ years, Claude Dislaire. We also go to see Jean-Marie and Lucille Hauser and sometimes stay with them. These pictures were taken in May 1999.

In the United States, it is now considered in poor taste to show off your best locomotive with a pretty girl standing next to it, but this is France where beauty is greatly appreciated.
