in france, today is the le jour de la toussaint, all saint’s day. throughout the country, kids are celebrating a day without school, and adults are mourning their departed, placing chrysanthemums by the graves of loved ones. these mums, not actually mourning, merely cold and thirsty, managed to capture the spirit of the day about perfectly. so, goodbye papa. goodbye grandma and grandpa. goodbye uncle steve and aunt judy. goodbye cousin joey. goodbye kerri. and goodbye to you animals who were family while you were here. murphy. idgy. milo.
