Romance blooms




 Here is Juttas' daughter Eleanor with Felix... who proposed marriage to her on the mountain above town and was accepted:) She has a beautiful ring and we were charmed to share a little in the story of their lives. ( I blame the blanquette for the blurred picture though I was probably overcome with emotion )
And here is Barbara Ford who was exhibiting at the Domaine Antugnac  with friends Raj Gopal, Christian Hadengue, Tony Cassius... one day only, it tied in with music and a tasting of the wines and was quite lovely. The huge silver tanks where the wine is coaxed into life were a perfect setting for Christians large calligraphic pieces, Roger had a good space and Tony was dotted all over the cool cellars. Nice event.
Barbara is devoted to insects as am I, as are we all in the face of ecological disaster.
 Been wandering about in the cooler parts of the day - here is a patch en route to Campagne/sur/aude which not long ago was a wheat field. Grapes are forming already on the newish vines.
Lots of little fishes in the river and there are many large trout floating about. Could be that all is well.
