Last week, before going to the Abbey, as I had business to do in Versailles, I had lunch with my mother in her retirement home in Versailles.
I left my camera in her bedroom. So, yesterday, on the road to Bonn to visit @shortcut, I stopped again in Versailles and had lunch with my mother.
She has a large room. All the furniture belongs to her, except the bed.

On the walls, she put a number of pictures and photographs.

I left Versailles and drove to Cambrai, where I spent the night in a cheap hotel.
And today, I drove to Bonn. Tomorrow, I'll visit the city. I think I will go to the Beethoven House.
Then, in the afternoon, I'll meet @shortcut and with @asperger-kids, that I have never met, we will go to the Steemit Meetup Aachen #3.
Life is beautiful and rewarding at the same time.
Enjoy every minute with your mommy.
Nice pictures too.
Be safe out there.
Keep on steemin'

Funny how military careers is sometimes running in the family (thinking of your great grandfather). My wife's paternal family was soldiers and then for some generation customs officials, but still with the martial culture intact.
Looking forward to seeing you!

Quite impressive to read, that your mother is almost a 100 years old. She looks really strong for that age.
Sorry to hear, that you left your camera, though...

I remember as a kid visiting my grandmothers house and looking at all the pictures. They had such big families on my dads side and the walls were trip though history. It doesn’t matter how many times you see the pictures it always takes you back. So nice that you got to spend some quality time with your mom.

Je n'ai pas vu cette publication si belle au sujet de sa mère, j'aime beaucoup qu'il l'ait partagé, on voit que c'est assez confortable à cet endroit et entouré de nombreux souvenirs de famille. Je t'envoie beaucoup de câlins et de bénédictions.
