Fox3 is correct, the pretty little town of Ouray, CO. Spent a few days there a couple of years ago with D1, and caught up with a fellow woodworker there who is making some amazing artwork.

Fox3 has declared open house, so go for it, folks.

Mrs Ex-A has got me thinking.

Corsica, west coast?

Google shows a similar picture and suggests it is Villanovo but I am not certain.

The only place I have been to on Corsica is Bonafacio, on a boat many years ago, so perhaps it is there.
