We got a postcard on Friday from the mayor that said Meilleurs Voeux 2017 that we might otherwise recognize as Best Wishes for the new year. On the other side of the card that you see here is his greeting wishing us a happy new year and thanking us for our confidence in him and in our city. In all of the places that we’ve lived, I don’t remember ever getting a card like this before—a tax bill, jury duty summons, or a zoning change, sure, but nothing nice like this. Looks like 2017 is getting off to a great start in Carcassonne!
