This was a wonderful book

 

lots of war though if you are adverse...but I think it is an incredible book....where to next?

More to come from this day.

 bad weather to come so we made a mad dash north into the hills. Still just too early. Some trees starting to bloom. but barely....the sky was amazing blue with not a cloud...it was a bit stressful as I could hear sheep bells not too far off...If there are sheep, there are the guard dogs that I really worry about....they can be vicious. Rune was so happy but on alert the whole time.

glowing shoes in the sun.

so crowded.

very crowded every year.

Serge Lama...You could have his whole collection...who is he? Watch the next post as I educate myself.

You could have lunch...I'm having Tartare de Boeuf.

I love this "cave" filled with glass and ceramics. I bought an old plate , oblong, for cheese....

I want to put my cheese on a plate like the french...all the different types of cheese. This place is always PACKED....people hold their little dogs in their arms. A little dachshund and I evaluated a pretty plate with pink morning glories on it. His father was looking in another direction. I let him smell it and we evaluated. I ended up with a different plate that was hard to get at, way in a niche clogged with stuff. . A french woman and I talked the owner through getting at it. It was only 1 euro!

Fallen angel....a flawed human, an incredible talent...sadly missed for what could have been with that voice.

A few things

 

Today

A lovely walk this morning. I wasn't expecting such an amazing sky. We ran into a woman  with headphones on...I said Bonjour as I don't want to scare anyone but she didn't seem to care....then 3 men coming in our direction. They thought Rune was a girl!!! why? cause he is beautiful? He ran up to them, unafraid...had they only have tried to pet him he would have melted.

I was driving like a nut on the way back on a very small road as the clouds were amazing. A car came up from behind me and the woman asked me if I was lost....I explained ( in French)...I am a photographer and have you seen the clouds!!!! She was super nice...as all french people are when they hear an "etranger" speaking their language. It's just so obvious to any french person, but! I am happy with the fact that I can communicate and explain myself...never any fear with this...I just speak freely no matter what is sounds like.

 

Italian Alps very close today.

Alps in the distance

Hepatica...I love them.

looking down to the sea.

Rune wants to know, Now what Mom? You hit the end of this trail or at least a logical end to this walk and you see the sea.

Parking....they make it almost impossible now but there was not a big demand at the moment. I have bottomed out here before.
