Woody Allen Movies, Best to Worst
- The Best: 'Annie Hall' (1977)
Allen's bittersweet romantic comedy, inspired by his real-life romance with Diane Keaton, is his most complete and completely satisfying film. Adjusted for inflation, it's his biggest hit to date. For apprentice filmmakers, it's a master class in technique (Allen uses every trick in his arsenal, including split-screens, subtitles, and animation), editing, story structure, and, of course, dialogue. It has some of Allen's best visual and verbal gags. It's the model for virtually every smart, urbane romantic comedy of the last 36 years. And it features Keaton at her most luminous, in the role for which she'll be best remembered. What's not to like?
- 2. 'Hannah and Her Sisters' (1986)
Allen's warm and generous dramedy about three very different sisters contains multitudes. Among other things, it's a tribute to Allen's on- and off-screen partner Mia Farrow (she and her mother and several of her children are cast members), a twisty romantic comedy, an Oscar-winning showcase for Michael Caine and Dianne Wiest (in her star-making role), and a comic epic about a spiritually bereft man's search for meaning. Allen's monologue near the end of the movie -- his recognition, via a viewing of the Marx brothers' "Duck Soup," that, even if we live in a godless universe and go around just once, we can still find joy and meaning in art and in love -- is the very heart of all of Allen's body of work.
- 3. 'Crimes and Misdemeanors' (1989)
This is the ideal fusion of Allen's light-and-funny movies and his dark-and-serious ones. A drama (featuring Martin Landau, in his finest performance) and a comedy (featuring Allen and Farrow) play out in parallel storylines that intersect only at the end of the film and reinforce the point that we live in a universe without justice, where the good often suffer and evil often goes unpunished, even rewarded. It's the flip side of the message of "Hannah and Her Sisters," along with a reminder that what meaning we can find in such a universe comes from the ties we forge with other people.
- 4. 'Manhattan' (1979)
The most bittersweet of Allen's romantic comedies, and the most gorgeous-looking (thanks to Gordon Willis's striking black-and-white shots of New York). It's a film of goodbyes; this is his last film with Keaton as star/muse (at least for the next 14 years) and his last film of the 1970s. Not to mention the disastrous ways that romances end in the movie. (Given Allen's personal history, the romance between his character and teenage Mariel Hemingway is kinda creepy, but she turns out to be smarter than he is.) In the end, Allen can depend only on his beloved city, and for anyone who's ever fallen in love with New York, that may be enough.
- 5. 'Match Point' (2005)
Allen makes the same point, as in "Crimes and Misdemeanors," about the universe being a place without justice, using a similar tale of a man who murders an inconvenient woman in order to preserve his marriage and social status. But this time, he does so without the consolation of comedy. The result is as chilling, bracing, and pure as a swim in Arctic waters. The icy-cool/steamy-hot coupling of sociopathic social climber Jonathan Rhys Meyers and temptress Scarlett Johansson is a highlight of Allen's first movie filmed in London, marking the beginning of his recent salutary run of movies set in Europe.
- 6. 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' (2008)
Sexual adventuring is not for the faint of heart, as Rebecca Hall learns in this comedy of manners. Hall is one corner of a romantic quadrangle (along with Johansson, Javier Bardem, and Oscar-winning scene-stealer Penelope Cruz) in which two American women get more than they bargained for when they tap into the lusty vida loca lived by artists in Spain. Again, the change of venue does Allen good; like Hall, he seems both terrified and delighted to discover a tempestuous stew of sex and culture so far from provincial Manhattan.
- 7. 'Sleeper' (1973)
The funniest, most broadly slapstick film of Allen's early comic period, "Sleeper" is also a surprisingly sly sci-fi satire, with a cryogenically frozen Allen waking up two centuries from now to find himself in an Orwellian society that's literally led by the nose. The usually cerebral writer/director/star doesn't get enough credit for his prowess as a physical comedian, but gags here involving a giant reel of recording tape, a jet pack, and robot butlers should remind you how funny he can be without saying a word.
- 8. 'Broadway Danny Rose' (1984)
Allen plays a sad-sack talent agent to an ad hoc family of pathetically talentless performers in this comic meditation on showbiz nostalgia, the virtues and limits of loyalty, and the differences between Italians and Jews. Shot in timeless black-and-white, the film contains a crackling performance by Farrow, against type, as a big-haired Jersey girl, as well as a priceless comic sequence involving the Macy's parade balloons.
- 9. 'Bullets Over Broadway' (1994)
After dumping longtime girlfriend Farrow for her adopted daughter -- and being roundly condemned as a cad at best and pedophile at worst -- Allen made a series of movies that, while hardly apologies, were explorations of the idea that it's possible to be both a great artist and a terrible human being. This was the first of those movies, and it's also the funniest. John Cusack (as a pretentious playwright), Chazz Palminteri (as a better playwright, who's also a mob hitman), Dianne Wiest (in another Oscar-winning turn, as a Broadway diva), and a pitch-perfect supporting cast turn this bitter cocktail into a fizzy concoction.
- 10. 'Midnight in Paris' (2011)
The highest-grossing movie of Allen's career (not adjusting for inflation) is this recent smash that proves nostalgia ain't what it used to be. Restless screenwriter Owen Wilson gets his wish, every night, to be transported back to 1920s Paris, rubbing shoulders with Picasso, Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Stein, and other legends, only to discover that each era has its discontents and regards a previous time as a lost golden age. You don't have to get all the references and in-jokes (the best of which is Corey Stoll's ultra-confident Hemingway) to appreciate the travelogue, the wistful thinking, or the lesson that the true golden age is always right now.
- 11. 'Zelig' (1983)
A dozen years before computer graphics made it possible to insert Tom Hanks into historical footage in "Forrest Gump," Allen did it by hand (and in black-and-white) in this clever mockumentary about a human chameleon (Allen) who assimilates with eerie ease into the realm of the rich and famous. The movie is prescient, too, in regarding Zelig's yen for fame (or at least proximity to it) as a modern kind of mental illness.
- 12. 'Deconstructing Harry' (1997)
Here's another sharp, edgy, artist-as-cad movie, this one filtered through the plot of Bergman's "Wild Strawberries" and the sensibility of Philip Roth. As a result, it's Allen's most profane, coruscating work. Allen raids his own subconscious for praise and condemnation, raids his bag of cinematic tricks for visual and conceptual gags, and takes a brief tour of hell (Billy Crystal is Satan). He proves he'll do anything for a laugh, no matter whom he hurts, including himself.
- 13. 'The Purple Rose of Cairo' (1985)
In a conceit borrowed from Buster Keaton's "Sherlock Jr.," Jeff Daniels plays Tom Baxter a dashing 1930s movie hero who walks off the screen and into the arms of his most ardent fan, miserable housewife Farrow. Things get complicated when Gil Shepherd, the real-life actor who plays Tom (also Daniels) shows up and falls for her, too. Forced to choose between fantasy and reality, she chooses wrong. "Purple Rose" may be a dark and twisted valentine to the consoling power of movies, but it's also pretty funny, especially when Tom Baxter start walking out of the picture in screens across America.
- 14. 'Husbands and Wives' (1992)
Made as his own relationship to Farrow was crumbling, Allen's last movie with Farrow is a bitter but thoroughly riveting drama about several star-crossed couples. Allen and Farrow are actually the most benign; the most powerful performances belong to Sydney Pollack and Judy Davis as a couple right out of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" Bonus points to Juliette Lewis as a coed who catches Allen's eye, but who also has his number.
- 15. 'Take the Money and Run' (1969)
Allen's directing debut is also one of his funniest movies. His first mockumentary, it's the story of Virgil Starkwell (Allen), the most inept bank robber of all time. Classic gags abound, including the illegible stick-up note and the gun carved from a bar of soap that turns to foamy bubbles in a rainstorm.
- 16. 'Bananas' (1971)
Allen's general contempt for politics and ideology is apparent throughout this satirical farce, in which he plays a guy who becomes a Latin American revolutionary leader in order to impress a cute radical (real-life ex-wife Louise Lasser). Includes the priceless gags in which sportscaster Howard Cosell covers a political assassination and, later, a marriage consummation.
- 17. 'Love and Death' (1975)
Who but Allen could get away with a movie making fun of 19th-century Russian novels? Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy take it on their long-bearded chins as Allen plays a reluctant Russian soldier, fighting in the Napoleonic wars and wooing aristocratic women. Not that you need to know the highbrow references to enjoy the film's sight gags and sex jokes.
- 18. 'Play It Again, Sam' (1972)
Allen didn't direct this one, but it bears his auteurist stamp. Adapted from his own play, "Sam" features Allen as a movie critic who takes romantic advice from the ghost of Humphrey Bogart (Jerry Lacy). It's Allen's first movie with Keaton, and they display eccentric but wonderful chemistry as they form what will be the signature screen couple of the 1970s. It's also Allen's first valentine to his own art form, and it's fun to measure the distance between the romantic ideal of the 1940s that Bogart embodied and the new misfit-as-romantic-lead template Allen was then busy creating for himself.
- 19. 'Radio Days' (1987)
Allen's thoroughly charming period piece combines old showbiz gossip with recollections of his own upbringing. How much of it is true and how much is made up or misremembered? It doesn't really matter. There's not much of a point, except to remind Allen fans once again of the fantastic and transformative powers of art, especially for an audience living through misery and hardship. Features an impossibly young (and funny) Seth Green as the pubescent Allen surrogate.
- 20. 'Everyone Says I Love You' (1996)
Allen's attempt at a musical (using the pre-1950 jazz and pop chestnuts he loves) is hit or miss, depending on the widely varying singing talents of his all-star cast (Edward Norton and Tim Roth are surprisingly good; Allen himself and Julia Roberts are the worst). As a look at love and romance through the escapades of a rich and wacky New York family (of the kind that probably existed only in 1930s movies), however, it's a winner. Natasha Lyonne became a star as the boy-crazy teen who serves as a sardonic narrator.
- 21. 'Small Time Crooks' (2000)
Allen tries to make it up to Tracey Ullman for not giving her a bigger part in "Bullets Over Broadway" by casting her in the lead here as a petty thief's social-climbing wife. But the movie is stolen by Elaine May, whom Allen coaxed out of retirement to play Ullman's blissfully dim-witted cousin. The movie starts out looking like a retread of "Big Deal on Madonna Street," with Allen leading a group of inept, Virgil Starkwell-ish bank robbers, but it soon transforms into a social satire about class and status symbols. Turns out the rich may or may not have better taste than the poor, but they certainly include a more accomplished class of thieves.
- 22. 'Manhattan Murder Mystery' (1993)
Allen's last film with Keaton (and his first with her in the decade and a half since their 1970s heyday) is a neat little comedy that has the pair playing a longtime couple whose stale marriage perks up when they start sleuthing (they suspect their neighbor of killing his wife). (Those playing Spot The Allusion will catch nods to such classics as "Rear Window," "The Thin Man," and "The Lady from Shanghai.") Anjelica Huston nearly steals the film as a woman of mystery who coaches the couple on how to entrap the alleged killer.
- 23. 'Mighty Aphrodite' (1995)
Allen's conceit of having an ancient-school Greek chorus narrate a modern-day romantic farce is certainly novel but also superfluous. The story of an adoptive dad (Allen) who's horrified to discover that his brilliant son's real mom is a hooker/porn actress (Mira Sorvino) is amusing enough on its own. Sorvino's helium-voiced performance, alternately hilarious and grating, won an Oscar.
- 24. 'Sweet and Lowdown' (1999)
The end of Allen's artist-as-cad series is a mockumentary that features a surprisingly winning performance by Sean Penn as a brilliant but solipsistic 1930s jazz guitarist, along with another surprisingly winning performance by Samantha Morton as his mute love interest. Neither character should work, but they do, through the performers' sheer Method conviction. Naturally, the score is terrific.
- 25. 'Scoop' (2006)
As trifles go, this one's pretty good. Allen's second London movie is a farce about a plucky American journalism student (Johansson) who stumbles upon a great tabloid crime story thanks to a tip from a ghost, who sends her messages via a third-rate magician (Allen). In her second movie with Allen, the two make an oddly sweet father/daughter team, though their rhythms are a little off. Hugh Jackman is good, too, as the seductive aristocrat whom Johansson suspects is a serial killer.
- 26. 'Interiors' (1978)
Allen's first truly serious, non-comedic movie is this Bergman-style psychological exploration of a disintegrating family. There are some fine, stark performances here, particularly by Geraldine Page as the matriarch and Keaton and Mary Beth Hurt as two of her daughters, but the whole thing has the oppressive weight of a graduate student's vain effort, trying to hard to emulate his mentor.
- 27. 'A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy' (1982)
Here's a Bergman knock-off that's not heavy at all, since it's essentially a re-do of the Swedish master's early sex farce "Smiles of a Summer Night." Allen's first movie with new off-screen love Farrow, the whole thing is lighter than air but thoroughly diverting. Jose Ferrer steals the movie as an old fool in love.
- 28. 'To Rome With Love' (2012)
Allen's most recent film (before the forthcoming "Blue Jasmine") is another lovely travelogue, like its immediate predecessor ("Midnight in Paris"), but without any of that film's substance. Here, the Eternal City is just another playground for mismatched lovers. The results are pretty funny, but they come with a hefty helping of déjà vu.
- 29. 'Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex... But Were Afraid to Ask' (1972)
Allen's inventive take on the popular sex-advice book is a series of sketches, all done in different styles, from medieval farce to 1960s Italian cinema to sci-fi/horror flick. Highlights include Gene Wilder as a shrink who falls for a sheep, Lou Jacobi as a cross-dresser, and Allen as a sperm preparing for launch. Oh, and watch out for the monster-sized boob.
- 30. 'Alice' (1990)
Allen's valentine to Farrow is a weird "Alice in Wonderland"-inspired comedy, one that sees Farrow playing an Upper East Side socialite who reexamines her unfulfilling life under the influence of some magical Chinese herbs. The fantasy sequences are delightful but don't really fit with the rest of this lugubrious, clichéd narrative. Farrow, whose strength should be at the story's center, instead seems to get lost in it.
- 31. 'Stardust Memories' (1980)
Allen's version of Fellini's "8 ½" is widely viewed as a screw-you to his fans, especially those who wish he'd keep making movies like his "early, funny ones." There's a little more art than that in this tale of a director (Allen) who's stuck in a creative and romantic rut. But not much.
- 32. 'Cassandra's Dream' (2007)
In Allen's third London-set movie, Colin Farrell and Ewan McGregor play brothers seeking a quick score and turn to crime, with disastrous results. It's not a bad thriller, but it takes a while to get going, and it's hardly as substantial as "Match Point." Plus, Allen's not really the right director for gritty, kitchen-sink naturalism.
- 33. 'Whatever Works' (2009)
Returning to Manhattan after four films in Europe, Allen casts Larry David as his surrogate, an old crank with a young wife. There's not much more to it than that. David's funny, as usual, but he's still pretty much playing the Larry David of "Curb Your Enthusiasm," and 92 minutes of that guy ranting is more than enough.
- 34. 'You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger' (2010)
Allen returns to London with another farce about smart (and sometimes old) people making foolish romantic choices. Despite a strong cast (Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts, Josh Brolin, Antonio Banderas), this one doesn't really gel.
- 35. 'The Curse of the Jade Scorpion' (2001)
Allen and Helen Hunt star as two 1940s insurance claims adjusters who fall in love while under the hypnotic influence of a larcenous magician. It's about as hilarious as it sounds, which is not much. Hunt comes off as too contemporary to play a Rosalind Russell-style wisecracking dame, and she has no chemistry with Allen. Charlize Theron, in a small role as a wealthy bad girl, steals the film.
- 36. 'Another Woman' (1988)
In this drama, Gena Rowlands plays an author whose emotional reserve shatters when she eavesdrops on the sessions of a depressed pregnant woman (Farrow) with the shrink next door. The premise works much better as farce, as Allen would prove in "Everyone Says I Love You."
- 37. 'September' (1987)
Imagine if Allen had taken the plot of "A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy" and filmed it in the chamber-drama style of "Interiors." Doesn't sound like a great idea, does it?
- 38. 'Melinda and Melinda' (2004)
One of Allen's less successful attempts at mixing comedy and drama is this tale of a neurotic woman (Radha Mitchell) who invades the lives of a couple she's befriended and proceeds to wreak havoc. The story is told in two parallel ways, one grim, one funny. The "Sliding Doors" plotting is meant to pose the question of whether life is essentially tragic or comic, but this is pretty thin gruel for such a big question. (Even so, poor Will Ferrell seems lost.) Besides, Allen's made the point over and over, in better movies than this one, that we don't have to choose.
- 39. 'Celebrity' (1998)
Allen's version of Fellini's "La Dolce Vita" is a satirical portrait of a world gone mad from its obsession with fame. Journalist Kenneth Branagh (imitating Allen's vocal mannerisms and hand gestures, but not his humanizing vulnerability) chases fame like a moth, basking in his proximity to a narcissistic, hotel-room-smashing actor (Leonardo DiCaprio) and a succession of flighty actresses and models. Allen doesn't have much of a point to make (Fame is shallow? And so are people who pursue it? Of course. And...?) except to rain contempt upon nearly all his characters for succumbing to a fascination with stardom that, let's face it, helps make Allen's own work possible.
- 40. 'Shadows and Fog' (1991)
Allen's one-act play "Death" is pretty effective on stage, but re-worked into a screenplay, its Kafkaesque depiction of mob paranoia is surprisingly inert. Allen's black-and-white dramedy is a tribute to the German Expressionist style of the silent film era (an effective way to display psychological states like paranoia and claustrophobia in visual, cinematic terms), and yet very little in this listless film works. Includes a cameo by Madonna as a circus performer that's not her finest hour.
- 41. 'Hollywood Ending' (2002)
Allen must have been feeling particularly bitter about his lack of commercial success in America throughout the '90s, and about being more appreciated in Europe than at home. Later, he'd channel those feelings productively by spending most of the next decade shooting in Europe, thereby finding new inspiration and recharging his creative batteries. But, in this film, he turns his frustration towards the hands that feed him (both the studio financiers and the fans, both at home and abroad). He plays a once-acclaimed director who's fallen on hard times and gets a shot at a commercially viable comeback film, only to have his anxiety develop into psychosomatic blindness. He directs the movie anyway, with the few who know trying to cover for him. That's not a bad idea for a sketch, but as a movie, it drags out. Plus, there's the unsavory spectacle of the 66-year-old Allen romantically entangled with not one but two women who are about 35 years his junior (Tea Leoni and Debra Messing). Really, enough is enough already.
- The Worst: 'Anything Else' (2003)
Playing a bitter, cranky mentor, Allen followed up "Hollywood Ending" by passing the romantic reins off to a much younger actor, Jason Biggs. Here, Allen dispenses bad advice to Biggs, who's besotted with a neurotic woman (Christina Ricci) who claims to love him but seems to be willing to sleep with any guy in New York except him. Misogynist? Yes (and unusually so for Allen), but the male characters don't come off any better; there's more than enough misanthropy to go around. (Allen gives himself all the funniest lines, but yeesh, do you really want to spend time with his character, or any of these people?) This is the sourest work of Allen's career. Fortunately, his next masterpiece ("Match Point") was just two movies away.

When Ronnie McBrayer wrote his first column, "Keeping the Faith," for the Walton Sun in the summer of 2006, little did he know his words would be read by millions in the years to come.
"Finding a welcome audience here led to finding my voice throughout North America," McBrayer told The Sun. "I am so grateful for that. Wow, has that little column gotten some legs!"
His column now appears in more than 100 outlets, newspapers and online, across the country with a circulation of more than six million readers; he has written multiple books and is a sought-after speaker. About two years ago, McBrayer left Walton County to tend to family matters in Georgia, but now is returning topastor A Simple Faith church in Santa Rosa Beach.
"I'm returning to actively lead ASF once again," he said. "I'm back as pastor but my role has never been a traditional one, no more than ASF is a traditional congregation. I'll be away from ASF on a regular basis because of my increased writing and speaking demands, but ASF is home for me and my family."
A Simple Plan
A Simple Faith church began around a kitchen table in the summer of 2007 in the home of Michael and Cheryl Belk.
"Most of us had been together at the Seaside Chapel, and we all shared a similar ambition: Simplicity," said McBrayer. "Following Christ together — 'doing church' — ought to be a little less complicated."
The founders wanted the church to be easily accessed by those who have never really given faith a try, and those who swore they would never go to church again. From those guidelines, A Simple Faith emerged.
"Though none of us knew where it was going. I even warned the people in the room, 'If we do this, it won't become what you think it will become — so much so, that half of you won't be here three years from now,' " McBrayer said. "And that statistic proved true. When something begins freshly and organically it goes and grows in directions that those who first planted the seeds, never imagined."
Looking back over his notes from that first meeting, McBrayer found that six years ago he said, "The last thing South Walton needs is another church, but it needs a place of simplicity and substance where people can learn what it means to follow Christ, worship God, love their neighbor, and serve the world. That's the kind of place I want to be a part of — it's the kind of ministry I hope we can put together."
A simple three-fold statement became the beliefs of A Simple Faith — a group of people who worship God, follow Christ, and serve the world.
"It's that simple," McBrayer said. "We hope you will journey with us."
'I don't think my heart ever left'
McBrayer announced in late 2012 that he would return to A Simple Faith and the area in the new year.
"I had a bit of an epiphany that led to this decision," he said. "It would take way too much copy space to explain it, but I felt like I should return. It was as if God and universe left me no other option, and I say that with a chuckle."
About two years ago, the family moved back to Georgia because of growing family needs.
"Our parents have not improved, but they have stabilized," McBrayer said. "Other family transitions have made it possible to return. I don't think my heart ever left."
McBrayer says that juggling demands on time between writing, speaking, preaching and family has taught him that if you don't make time, there will never be enough for those who need it. But how does he make time with his family?
"Like porcupines making love — very carefully," he said. "This is one thing I am much more deliberate about than ever. I carve out intentional time for my family and they are my highest priority. I also wave off most other invitations to do other things — chamber of commerce, sitting on boards, etc. I have only so much of me, and I want to be where I am most effective. My family, speaking, and writing take precedence."
Holding the door open
McBrayer, who lived his first 34 years in Georgia and moved to the Panhandle in the winter of 2004-2005, has been an ordained minister for more than 20 years.
Meeting the expectations of others is the hardest part of being a pastor for McBrayer.
"What they want you to be; what they think you should look like and sound like; what they think you should believe and how perfect you should be," he said. "I tell folks not to call me 'Reverend,' because in five minutes I can show you how irreverent I can be. Over time, a pastor makes peace with these expectations or he becomes an emotional slave to the whims of people."
The best part of pastoring is easy for McBrayer.
"It is the privilege of being a trusted part of people's lives. Weddings, baptisms, births, death, sickness, tragedy and joy. A pastor shares all of these. Who else gets that chance? It is genuinely a holy thing to be a part of."
With the exception of two contracted newspapers, McBrayer offers the column free of charge because hebelieves good writing and great ideas should not be treated as a commodity.
"My words resonate with those who are looking to hold to faith or return to faith after difficult experiences," McBrayer said. "The phrases 'Keeping the Faith' and 'Simple Faith' reflect this. My role is to hold the door open for those who thought they couldn't get in."
McBrayer's wife of almost 12 years, Cindy, says he has only one sermon: "God loves you no matter who you are, now go follow Jesus."
"She says I say this same thing over and over," McBrayer said. "Just in different ways."

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson's NYC Dinner Date Details!
Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are back together, and they want everyone to know it. Well, at least everyone slurping down pasta at New York City restaurant Babbo.
The pair was spotted on a dinner date at the NYC Italian eatery, run by celebrity chef Mario Batali, last night, November 24. Several witnesses took to Twitter to advertise their celebrity spotting expertise and invade the privacy of Hollywood's most celebrated undead couple.
"Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart of Twilight just sat down across from us at Babbo, will ignore them!" one onlooker tweeted.
Um, we find it hard to believe that anyone could ignore the
brooding romantic energy from across the room.

The USF community recently celebrated the installation of Adobe Systems co-founder Charles Geschke, PhD, as the inaugural holder of the Rev. P. Carlo Rossi, S.J. Entrepreneurial Chair.
Established by the late Robert Wall '54 and C. Allen Wall '47 to honor their late uncle, the chair is a perpetual statement of gratitude for the role Fr. Rossi and USF played in the lives of the Wall children, while also supporting the important role of the Jesuit tradition in entrepreneurship. Fr. Rossi was a long-time member of the California Province of the Society of Jesus and professor at USF.
"Dr. Geschke is not only a successful inventor, innovator, entrepreneur, business leader, and philanthropist, he is also a man of sincere faith," said Mike Duffy, dean of the School of Business and Professional Studies. "He will serve as mentor for our students and faculty, illustrating that high achievement in business and in society stems from a solid foundation of faith and ethics."
Geschke, who previously served as chairman of the USF Board of Trustees, will serve as a guest lecturer in undergraduate, graduate, and executive business classes.
The Rossi Chair is the first chair established in partnership with the Geschke/Getty Distinguished Faculty Fund. Established in 2006 by the Geschkes and Gordon and Ann Getty, this fund provides matching grants to attract and support dynamic faculty in disciplines identified by the president as having maximum impact in achieving the university's mission. The Geschke/Getty Fund is also providing matching funds for the Richard C. Blum Chair in Asian Studies and the Hamill Family Chair in the School of Law.

The Hillsville Town Council made changes to seven town codes, most of which deal with appearance issues, and repealed two others during its March 25 meeting. The changes in the codes clarify property owners' responsibilities, and town employees of how to handle cases of unresponsive owners.
Town Manager Travis Jackson told council a "major cleanup" is being undertaken throughout the town. Owners of unkempt property and unlicensed vehicles will be notified by April of their violations.
Town Code Chapter 97-3 (B) reads, in part, "Weeds growing or trash lying on any parcel shall constitute a public nuisance, except that in the case of a parcel greater than two acres in area natural vegetation growing more than 50 feet from every property line shall not constitute a public nuisance. It shall be unlawful to cause or allow a public nuisance with any respect to a parcel."
Chapter 160-1 reads "It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to keep on any commercial, residential or agricultural property any motor vehicle, trailer or semitrailer, as defined in 46.2-100 Code of Virginia, which is unlicensed or otherwise in operative and not within a fully enclosed building or structure or otherwise shielded or screened from view. If a vehicle cover method is used, the cover must be of a type that is manufactured for that purpose and covers the entire vehicle."
If a property or vehicle owner doesn't comply with the town code, and refuses to comply, the town can do the needed work and charge the owner for it.
Chapter 171, Article V, Chapter 26(C) deals with remedies for noncompliance with zoning requirements. It reads, "Should such notice and order fail to result in compliance with this chapter; the Zoning Administrator shall have the authority to bring legal action to ensure compliance with the appropriate action or proceeding. The Zoning Administrator shall have the authority to initiate criminal or civil proceedings as provided for by the laws of the Commonwealth. The Town shall have the right con contract the work to be completed to comply with the Town's code, the cost of which shall be chargeable to and paid by the owner of said property. Every charge authorized by this Article with which the owner of any such property shall have been assessed and which remains unpaid shall constitute a lien against such property, and the Treasurer shall file with the Clerk of the County Circuit Court a statement of the lien claim. Release of such lien shall be executed by the Treasurer upon presentation of evidence that the amount of the lien and cost involved have been paid to the Town."
Surfacing requirements are dealt with in three of the code changes. Chapter 171, Article XI, 50 B (3) says "All storage areas shall be surfaced with concrete, asphalt, tar and gravel that provide a dust-free surface. All areas shall be graded and drained so as to dispose of all surface water in compliance with applicable storm water management regulations."
Article XII, 57 reads "After effective date of this amended chapter, Section 171-57, all permitted or required open off-street loading berths and parking shall be surfaced with asphalt or concrete and constructed to provide adequate drainage. Design and construction must comply with applicable storm water management regulations."
Article XIII, 63 (B) reads, "All off-street parking areas shall be surfaced with asphalt or concrete and constructed to provide adequate drainage."
The final code change involves the replacement of nonconforming manufactured homes. Chapter 171, Article XV, 79.1 reads, "Removal and replacement of a manufactured home which constitutes a nonconforming used on an individual lot or within a manufactured home park ore removal of any manufactured or mobile home unit which does not conform to current Federal Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards and not Housing and Urban Development (HUD) approved and manufactured in 1980 and prior and replacement of such unit with a manufactured home which conforms to said standards shall be permitted provided the replacement takes place within 60 days of removal."
In addition, council repealed Chapter 26 entitled "Personal Policy" and Chapter 15, entitlt3ed "Grievance Procedure." Those items are not usually included in the town code, but in a separate document, according to Jackson.

New Toy
Ruger Mk III 22/45 Target. Got it for $266 before tax, brand new. I don't think I'll see it any cheaper anywhere else, so I figured I might as well buy it. I put 200 rounds through it this afternoon, which cost me $12. Very accurate, very fun to shoot."No. Listen to me because I know what I'm talking about here." -- Hannibal
I also rented a Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm compact handgun today. Mostly because I get free rentals at the range I go to, and am about to move. I shot it side by side with my gen 4 glock 19.
The M&P is a nice pistol, but I don't like it nearly as much as my glock. It shot well and was accurate, but had a couple drawbacks.
1.) Recoil seemed a lot stronger, though was still pretty negligible.
2.) This is the big one for me: The trigger. Kind of a long trigger squeeze, and the reset is definitely a lot longer. Worse still, it's imperceptible. You just have to sort of figure out where it resets, leading to longer trigger squeeze and reduced accuracy.
3.) As a minor point of contention, it is almost exactly the same size as a glock 19, but only holds 12 rounds in the magazine I was given. I'm sure larger mags are available, but if that is what it comes standard with, that is kind of lame."No. Listen to me because I know what I'm talking about here." -- Hannibal

Guy Who Pays the Bills and Gets the Death Threats Style: MMA (Retired)--
At 15 meters, 2 rounds out of 100 were outside of the 9 score on an oval shoot n see target. Roughly 30 were on the orange bullseye. And I have strength and dexterity loss on the left side of my body from a spinal cord injury. And I shoot left handed.
At 7 meters, "stray shot" = outside of the bullseye.
Seriously accurate."No. Listen to me because I know what I'm talking about here." -- Hannibal

TIFTON - Eleanor Isabelle McCullough Jerdan, 97, of Tifton died Saturday, September 7, 2013, at Southern Care Assisted Living. Funeral services will be at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 10, 2013, in the Chapel of Bowen-Donaldson Home for Funerals. Rev. Stephen Webb will officiate. Pallbearers will be Brian Jerdan, Matthew Jerdan, Philip Jerdan, William Jerdan, Frank Sayles and Nick Sayles. Honorary pallbearers will be the members of the Christian Covenant Sunday School Class and United Methodist Women Circle 9 of Tifton's First United Methodist Church and the staff of Southern Care Assisted Living. The family will receive friends on Tuesday, September 10, 2013, from 4:00 p.m. until the hour of the service at Bowen-Donaldson Home for Funerals, 420 Love Ave.
Mrs. Jerdan was born on June 22, 1916, in Philadelphia, Pa., and was the daughter of John McCullough and Ida Mae Robinson McCullough Hartzag, both deceased. She was also preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Bishop William Henry Stuart Jerdan, and sister Anna May McCullough Ahrens. She attended Philadelphia College of Bible, and was a telephone switchboard operator for a short time. She loved Jesus and joyously served the Lord all of her life, living 42 years in Philadelphia, where her husband founded Calvary Reformed Episcopal Church, and she taught the Beginners Sunday School.
For 43 years she lived in Summerville, S.C., as wife of the bishop of the Diocese of the Southeast. She would sing solos during his Episcopal visits at the 33 churches in his jurisdiction and taught crocheting and sewing skills during summer camps at the Bishop Jerdan Conference Center in Awendaw. She raised and bred AKC collies to help put her children through college. She loved several generations of neighborhood children, and in the late 1960s Mrs. Jerdan was a librarian at Alston Middle School, where she was beloved by the Library Club. Later, she was librarian for Cummins Memorial Theological Seminary in Summerville, S.C. After Bishop Jerdan retired from his post, he was elected Presiding Bishop of the Reformed Episcopal Denomination in North America. They enjoyed trips to France to visit their missionary son and daughter-in-law for the births of their grandchildren, to Egypt and Israel to visit the Holy Land, and to Hawaii and California. After Bishop Jerdan's passing in 2001, she relocated to Tifton with her daughter's family and joined the Tiftonite Newcomers Club and Tifton First United Methodist Church.
Mrs. Jerdan is survived by five sons and four daughters-in-law, Rev. William Stuart and Diane Jerdan of Warrenville, Ill., Bruce Alan Jerdan of Santa Ana, Calif., Barry Dean and Nancy Jerdan of Richmond, Va., Brian Scott and Kate Jerdan of Ridgeville, S.C., and Robert Mark and Ronda Jerdan of Anchorage, Alaska; one daughter and son-in-law, Bonnie Eleanor Jerdan Sayles and husband Frank Sayles Jr. of Tifton; one brother, John Wesley McCullough of Levittown, Pennsylvania; two nephews; 15 grandchildren; and 16 great-grandchildren.
A memorial service and burial will be held this week in Philadelphia, and Mrs. Jerdan's passing will be acknowledged during a memorial service at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 14, at St. John's Reformed Episcopal Church, 91 Anson St., Charleston, S.C., during the closing Communion Service of the Diocese of the Southeast's annual convocation.
Flowers will be welcome, or memorial gifts may be made to the Reformed Episcopal Church Mission Board, 4142 Dayflower Drive, Katy TX 77449, or online at www.recbfm.org, or to the Alzheimer's Association, Georgia Chapter, 225 Second St. E., Tifton, GA 31794, or online at georgiawalk.org.
Condolences may be sent to the family at the online guest registry at www.bowen-donaldson.com. Services for the Jerdan family are under the care and direction of Bowen-Donaldson Home for Funerals.

Yadkin County Emergency Medical Services has a new home.
The county's EMS team has moved into its new location at 108 George St. in Yadkinville.
The location is an unused portion of the hospital that was initially built as a nursing home facility. Since then the area has been used for many things but from now on it will be the operating center for the lifesavers of Yadkin County.
Before the move the Yadkin County EMS was located in the old jail location that sits beside the current jail. EMS Director Keith Vestal said that the building was deteriorating because of its age and he saw the need for a change when he took over as director.
"That building was built somewhere in the 1920s or 1930s, Vestal said. "It has old baseboard heat and it has leaking issues so we were having a lot of moisture problems. The plaster was literally turning loose from the walls and falling off. The metal steps in the building that we used run calls were rusting through. A lot of health and safety issues were present."
Vestal said that he took his concerns to County Manager Aaron Church and he instructed Vestal to look for possible solutions and come back to him. Vestal did just that and came back with a proposal for the county to take over the unused portion of the hospital.
"The county approached the hospital about the floor space and was able to work out a contract so that we could operate out of this location," Vestal said. "Since the hospital is leasing the property from the county, the county was able to negotiate the value of this portion of the property and deduct it from the hospital's lease and the county didn't need to create any new construction or acquire new property."
The location required a lot of repairs and work after years of abuse and vacancy. Vestal said that his staff played a major role in the repairs and renovation of the site to suit the needs of the EMS team.
"All of my guys usually have other specialties because of their schedule; it's pretty easy for them to work secondary jobs," Vestal said. One of my guys really knew a lot about the waxing and buffing of the floors here, another had a lot of experience with painting and I had another that is really good with general repair.
"The county bought us all of our materials like the paint, the sheet rock and the repair stuff. I would say we saved several thousand dollars in labor with the painting, floor care and the sheet rock repairs," Vestal continued.
Now that the facility is up and running the EMS will have several new assets at its disposal. The center of the facility houses the group's training and education center.
Vestal said before the new location EMS had to work around schedules for the conference rooms at Yadkinville Fire Department and the Yadkin County Planning and Permits office. Now they are able to accommodate all of their continuing education at their own facility.
"For EMS we have to have training classes several times every month to keep up with the continuing education and to keep up to date on the latest skills, techniques and drugs that we're using in our jobs," Vestal said. "We have really never had a place where we could all get together and train."
In the case of a local emergency the training area can be transformed into an emergency operation center. It can accommodate federal, state and local emergency management teams. The area has Internet connections so that each teach has instant access to whatever they need.
The location houses offices for several medical and emergency officials. The medical director has an office on site as well as the EMS director, fire marshal and the EMS major.
Former patient rooms were transformed into shift supervisor's offices. Aside from basic office equipment these three rooms will include sleeping quarters because the shift supervisor's workday spans 24 hours.
There is also a fully functional kitchen on site with a dining area that can double as a breakout room in cases of emergency.
Vestal said that while the facility has come a long way there are still a few things that need to be completed before it will be finished. A security wall must be built at the entrance of the facility to maintain confidentiality in the case of an emergency, audio/visual equipment must be installed throughout the facility and more electrical work must be contracted out to finish lighting.
Vestal said that he also hopes to receive a grant from the state to get the EMS team its own generator.
"There are only certain outlets that are able to pull power from the hospital generator," Vestal said. "We're trying to work with state emergency management to get a generator that's there for us so that we will be able to power the entire building and we won't have to go down to half power like the hospital will. We want to be able to run and handle whatever emergency is going on."
Vestal said that he and his staff are very pleased to be in the new building and he has noticed a sense of pride and accomplishment amongst his staff since the move.
"The building we were in was not laid out to fit our needs and when we would have sales people or hospital representatives come in it was not a building to be proud of," Vestal said. "We're really proud of this building and we don't mind visitors stopping by. Everybody here is really proud of this place, especially since we did a lot of it ourselves."

BlackBerry 10 superphones not arriving until late 2012
RIM announced their Q3 2011 results today, including the bloodbath that is PlayBook sales, and clusterfrak that is BlackBerry 10 superphones not being available until late 2012.
RIM needs to either get it together and become the competition we sorely need, or hope their stock drops low enough that CrackBerry Kevin can buy them with left over watch money and turn them around himself.
Either way, it deeply angers me to have to say, I told you thusly.

BlackBerry 10 superphones not arriving until late 2012
People always forget that. I don't ever want to live in a world where only the iPhone exists. It would never change because it never need to.
Yeah just like in 2007 when Apple invented the iPhone you mean?
Oh hang on.....
It's the Co-CEO's. Fire them both and get one man to do a better job. Clearly, this CEO Team isn'g getting the job done.
Love the Big Bang Theory reference... I informed you thusly!!! Awesome and and to Kevin: Blackberry sorely needs to be owned by some one who is passionate about their phones, I carried a Blackberry for 4+ years and with the recent phones released I switched to iPhone because you could tell that level of craftsmanship and dedication to quality was gone.

I have plans October 8 and 9th but will arrive late on the 6th so could possibly meet people on Friday day, Sunday evening or Monday day...I have to plan a couple other things but just wanted to let you know--and if people are interested in getting together--maybe just for coffee--I am coming to town.
Take care!

Exceptional value
Ohio Northern University graduates are well prepared for successful careers in their fields or for continued studies at a top graduate schools.
Legacy Family
At Donnelly family gatherings, Ohio Northern University is a popular topic of conversation because the entire family claims ONU as its alma mater.
Dennis and Ellen Donnelly's three children, John, Ann and Mark, are all ONU alumni. Dennis also is an ONU alumnus (BS '70 and JD '76) and Ellen attended ONU. "In fact, our oldest son was born the night before my husband, Dennis, was scheduled to take a final exam for law school. He did pass!" she said, with a laugh.

Civitas Media
This past Friday, members of the Logan Detachment of the West Virginia State Police, assisted by the US 119 Drug and Violent Crimes Task Force, conducted a prostitution sting in the Logan area.
Seven were arrested and face charges including one charge each for prostitution: Pamela Paynter, 35, of Huntington; Leigha Evans, 27, of South Charleston; Kaila Stiltner, 26, of Cora; Carmelita Browning, 25, of Logan; Sarah Trammell, 33, of Charleston; Roberta Tomblin, 45, of Mount Gay and Amelia Bradshaw, 32, of Holden. All were incarcerated at the Southwestern Regional Jail.
Pamela Paynter was also charged with simple possession after a post-arrest search revealed she had eight blue, oblong pills believed to be Alprozolam, a Schedule 3 drug in her purse. The officer also found a small baggy containing a green leafy substance believed to be marijuana, a Schedule 1 drug. Paynter's bond was set at $3,500. Bond for the remaining defendants was set at $2,500 each.
In addition, two outstanding warrants against Carmelita Browning were located after her arrest.
The sting is an effort to curb prostitution in the Logan area and the WVSP says the next sting will target customers of the prostitutes.

Best Uses
The oscillating tool has a vacuum attachment — a bit awkward, but it promotes a clean work area.
I like to compact size of the drill/driver, and the 12-volt lithium/ion battery is more powerful than other 18-volt tools I've used.
Best Uses
I have a corded Sonicrafter and bought this one to get rid of the cord. It is great for small jobs and the other battery can be recharged almost as quick as the first runs out. The 12 volt drill was the major reason for my purchase and I was not disappointed. Very high torque. Smooth trigger operationLight weight and feels really good in my hand.
Great price for the combo. Rockwell has batteries for lifeand you can't beat that.
Best Uses
The Multi-tool fits right in with my other power tools. It does things you can't do with other power tools.
Tool cuts fast and even.
Sander works well on irregular surfaces
Adapts other major tool brands
I did find that sanding runs the battery down fast. I learned to use the multi-tool for areas you can't get at with other sanders.
The Drill-Driver best feature is it's compactness. It's smaller that the other drills I own.
The Sonicrafter Combo Kit is a great find! Coming in a convenient carrying bag, this kit includes 2 Lithium Ion batteries, a charger and over 30 accessories. BOOM! These tools are versatile and convenient. With quick transitions between accessories the Sonicrafter can easily go from cutting, to sanding to sawing! BOOM x3!
I used the Sonicrafter just the other night to trim the lower branches off of my Christmas tree. It took me no time at all to put on the right saw blade and trim the tree so my wife and I could get it up and kick off our first Christmas season together as newly weds!
This combo is made complete with the compact drill driver which I found to be surprisingly powerful for it's size and weight. This little drill seems to be up to any task that I have had for it. What a nice surprise!
Simply put, the Rockwell Sonicrafter Combo Kit is a dynamic duo of tools for jobs around the house and in the shop.

Walt and Skeezix
Walt and Skeezix: 1929-1930
"Frank King's Gasoline Alley may be the best syndicated comic strip ever. Walt & Skeezix lovingly collects two year's worth of the strip."-Playboy
"There is a lovely, often wrenching gravity to the strip. King knows how humans as well as cars work, especially toddlers. His unsentimental understanding of their moods and games, matched by Walt's sudden and unquestioned devotion to his adopted son, make this about as affecting a portrait of fatherhood as I've seen, not least because Skeezix grows. This is the great innovation and dark curse of 'Gasoline Alley': the characters age."-The New York Times Book Review
"This Chris Ware-designed collection...caught even hardcore comics devotees flatfooted with its boundless wonders"-The Onion

"This is a really cute card! I stayed with basic paper - it was fine! Printing was on point. I had a lot of wording to squeeze in. Heard from the reviewer right away - she was very helpful. I would order from these guys again!"
"I ordered this invitation for a winter wedding reception in December. It is elegant, modern and understated. Exactly what I wanted. The card stock is nice and the red print makes the invitation festive without being too cutesy. I was late in ordering and used the expedited process. Super fast and got the invitation in 4 days. Just in time! I was thrilled with the purchase and customer service. I would definitely order from Wedding Divas again."
"This card came out really nice and everyone loved it! it was perfect for our holiday white elephant gift exchange party. The pearl white shimmer paper made this look so nice! I received so many compliments on the cards."
"I had no problem personalizing this invite. The directions made It very easy to do. I chose 5 invites that I liked then asked my mother which one she liked best and it was the tasty blooms. The quality of the paper for the invites as well as the envelopes were great! Text was a little trying only because the options given were not all condusive to the size of the invite. Great product!"
"This is a fantastically beautiful invitation.Love the colors and unique design and to make things even better, it arrived ahead of schedule and under budget! The guest of honor commented that these are her 2 favorite colors."

Gmail has a very cool feature not available in other webmail applications: feeds for unread messages. For example, the feed http://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/ shows the most recent unread items from your inbox. Gmail also offers feeds for your labels: http://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/labelname/, but it would be nice to have a comprehensive listing of all the unread messages, not just the ones that have a certain label. As you probably know, "unread" is one of the many built-in labels in Gmail, so you can use it to obtain this feed: http://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/unread/. In the URLs above, you can replace "http" with "https" for more security.
Gmail's feeds require authentication, so they don't work in many feed readers, like Google Reader or iGoogle. There are some feed readers that support password-protected feeds:
* assuming you're logged in to your Gmail account, you can add any of the feeds to Firefox's Live Bookmarks (this is more like a workaround than true support for authenticated feeds)
* you can subscribe to the feeds in Opera if you don't like the built-in mail client
Desktop feed readers
* some desktop feed readers listed by Google that support Atom 0.3, SSL/HTTPS, and HTTP authentication
Online feed readers
* Netvibes is a notable example of online feed reader that supports authenticated feeds
Gmail recommends to make sure that the feed's content is private. "Keep in mind when you subscribe to your Gmail feed that some aggregators allow you to share, syndicate, or otherwise re-publish the feeds you subscribe to. This means that even though your Gmail feed is private, its contents could be made public through one of these methods. So you'll want to double-check the privacy settings in your aggregator to make sure you aren't sharing any information you don't want to."

David Hall: The 1932-D is by far the rarest of the Washington quarters. There are only two Washington quarters with mintages of under one million coins. The 1932-D has an original mintage of 436,800 coins and the 1932-S has a mintage of 408,000 coins. Both coins have been highly sought after in all grades for the past 60 years. They are the key dates of the Washington quarter series and actually are two of the better known rare coins of the twentieth century.
The post World War II coin boom (starting in the 1950s) saw a lot of collectors looking for coins in circulation that they needed for their various sets. At the time, it was possible to find most of the copper, nickel, and silver coins of the 20th century in circulation. They may have been low grades, but at the time most collectors just wanted to "fill the hole" and condition was a secondary consideration. The coins that were more difficult to find were the lower mintage coins such as the 1909-S VDB cent, the 1916-D dime, and the 1932-D and 1932-S quarters. They were nearly impossible to find in circulation and were relatively expensive even in low grades.
Nowadays, condition is much more important, but the 1932-D and 1932-S quarters are still very desirable in all grades. I believe they are very similar in rarity in circulated grades. But Uncirculated examples of the 1932-S was apparently saved a little more than the 1932-D in the year of issue as the 1932-D is definitely rarer than the 1932-S in mint state condition. The 1932-D has the lowest MS65 population of any Washington quarter. As I'm writing this there is one lone PCGS MS66, a marvelous coin that sold at auction for $143,000 in 2008.

About the Rivers - Europe
River cruising is a wonderful story of discovery—complete with easygoing comfort and convenience. You'll uncover treasures you find straight out from history books and fairytales. Allow these peaceful waterways to serve as your pathway for a journey of a lifetime!
Douro River Cruise
Portugal and Spain's pristine Douro River Valley—the birthplace of Port wine and a UNESCO World Heritage site—has wildly dramatic scenery, steeply terraced vineyards, and dozens of charming riverside villages.
Rhine River Cruise
Steeped in legend and myth, the Rhine is one of Europe's longest waterways, highly revered for its breathtaking natural beauty. The UNESCO-designated Rhine River Valley is home to more fairytale castles than anywhere else in the world.
Seine River Cruise
En route from Paris—the "City of Light"—to the English Channel, the Seine meanders through France's lush Normandy region, home to historic Rouen, Monet's beloved gardens in Giverny, and the infamous D-Day beaches of WWII.
Danube River Cruise
The legendary Danube flows through nine countries—from Germany's Black Forest to the Black Sea—providing glimpses of ancient monasteries, Gothic cathedrals, quaint villages, bustling capital cities, and world-class vineyards.
Moselle River Cruise
The Moselle River gently winds through Germany, France, and Luxembourg, three of Europe's most spectacularly scenic grape-producing regions, generously lined with medieval wine estates and steep hillside vineyards.
Saône River Cruise
A quiet and gentle tributary of the Rhône, the Saône passes through some of eastern France's loveliest countryside.
Rhône River Cruise
Winding through vibrant fields of lavender and sunflowers—inspiration for Van Gogh and other artists—southern France's Rhône River Valley is as famous for its beauty as for its Beaujolais, Châtauneuf-du-Pape, and Côtes de Rhône wines.
Main River Cruise
The peaceful Main River flows through some of Germany's most iconic and picturesque regions, connecting to the Danube via the 106-mile-long Main-Danube Canal, a marvelous masterpiece of modern engineering.
Po River Cruise
Northern Italy's Po River is blessed with a plethora of historical, cultural, and natural wonders, and a scenic cruise amongst the islands in Venice's magical, otherworldly lagoon should definitely be on every world traveler's bucket list.
Garonne River Cruise
The beautiful Garonne River in southwestern France flows from the Pyrenees to the Atlantic, passing though the sun-drenched Bordeaux region, an area widely renowned for its delicious, world-class wines.
