I'ves always enjoyed her daily reports from Paris and thought she was going this spring.
there was just some sad news in the lounge about LoveItaly. So I'm hoping GraceJoan is okay and just not spending time in Paris

She's home right now, dac. She skipped Paris this spring, but I think she's bringing Paris to the US. Her current postings:

Didn't realize fascination was a requirement on Fodors. Joan has assisted me in planning all my Paris trips and meeting her in person made me love her even more. Luckily, I still keep in touch with her. And yes, TPAYT, I can't wait to see the food pics!

I get an email from her almost everyday and she is well. She shares with many still but away from the nasties who must criticize anyone who doesn't think the same way they do. She has a short trip planned soon but is not in Paris for Thanksgiving this year.
She's a gem and nothing but kind. Many enjoy her posts and the great info she shares.

When did Fodor's post suddenly have to be fascinating? I look for information and I got that from Gracejoan's posts. In addition to her postings here she was kind enough to offer on site help which speaks to her kindness and willingness to help others beyond just posting on this board. Never could understand why people don't just pass by posts that they don't like instead of being sarcastic and unkind. I don't blame her for preferring to stay off this board. Happy that I also stay in touch with her.

Wow - I haven't been on in such a long time....I have been stateside for months and to be honest I came on here tonight to see what all the Paris beautiful people had to say....Sorry to hear that Joan isn't on here often, I enjoyed her post...I am in the midst of crazy holidays and am promising the world and my family that I will be in Paris next holiday....The most memorable times comes from being there at Christmas and NYE....I will post some questions on another thread but just wanted to say seeing some of your names is like meeting up with old friends...

Like FabulousFrance, I also enjoyed her reports and even though I travel to Paris annually, I cannot afford to go in her great style. However, she seems to be the kindest, nicest woman anyone could hope to meet.

When she posted about her last trip, some nutcase registered as, I think, Gracejoan1 and started posting really nasty comments on her report. Some were removed before she saw them, but not all. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if that contributed to her not posting here so much. I miss her reports, they were great.
