Now,
As any winter season deepens - and months come and go, the attributes and characteristics of one's colleagues tend to become more and more apparent.
There are a few things about both Fabien and Valérie that on that note are worth noting - a managerial side note, if you will. Valérie has become the true matron of the lodge - our distant winter wilderness home. She is inexorably dedicated to the home's every function executed in the most clockwork of fashions. No detail is missed. Guests are greeted by her upon entry and cared for by her in every respect during the fullest extent of their stay. Largely because of Valérie, the lodge has never in it's history been so spotlessly clean. And Fabien, a true gentleman, and Valérie's complimentary easy going counterpart, never becomes fazed by circumstance. Poised and patient, in every way, Fabien seems happiest fixing things and situations - truly blessed with an eye for detail.
