House for rent

Just in case you are planning a trip to southern France anytime soon, I thought I'd show you the house my parents just bought!  It is located in the village of Vers-Pont-du-Gard, which is right next to Castillon-du-Gard, which is where our vineyards are!  How convenient when we're out there pruning, or plowing or picking grapes, we can just run on over to Mom and Dad's for lunch!  They are not yet planning on spending all of their time here, so they've decided to rent it out as a vacation rental on a weekly basis.  Unfortunately for any of you hoping to come for harvest, they will be here, enjoying their new house and picking grapes! But it's available all summer long and late fall, winter and who knows when else, just depends on when they decide to come.  If you're interested, drop me a line and I'll put you in touch with them.  There are two bedrooms, one bath, a nice kitchen, living room, and a good sized courtyard with an outdoor bbq.  Vers-Pont-du-Gard (Vers for short- pronounced Vairsss) is a wonderful village with all amenities; bakery, pharmacy, little grocery store, post office, doctors, you name it.  The Pont du Gard (roman aqueduct built around 19BC) is just across the road, in fact, Vers is where the quarries for this famous structure are located.   The quarries are still active today, you can visit them during your stay!

Hello,

I would be interested in getting more information about your parent's rental house. Also, I would like to re establish contact with your Mom. I live in Colorado Springs and worked over the Christmas holidays 2 years ago with your Mom at Williams Sonomoa. I kept the article that was written about your infant winery and your parents' visits but lost track of how to get a hold of your Mom. So, a contact number here would be great.

I was last in France 8 years ago visiting my son in Nice and some folks we know in Calas outside of Aix-en-Provence. That is way too long ago for me. Kids have grown and even gotten married. Time is going too fast. I lived in and around Aix-en-Provence for a scholastic year and more way back a long time ago when I was in college. I am not going to say how far back that was for fear of scaring myself. I have kept up with my French language skills and have a very strange attraction to anything French. Maybe I was someone famous in another life?

In any case, if I could get your Mom's number here, that would be great. There does not appear to be a listing in the phone book. Some day I would love to take my parents or anyone else who would come with me to southern France. This rental might be the beginning of that adventure?
