autumn

Still good weather with rain at night - and those lovely morning mists. Here's Rennes-le-Chateau appearing above the chemists.

Many friends preparing to leave with the swallows. Gracie is off today to join Tim for a month in England somewhere. We are leaving the summer house for the winter house, which means crossing the courtyard. Quite enough travel, with enough challenges to keep us busy.

Heard from Beth recently, remember our Canadian friends who stayed in Rue St Saens? The girls are back in school and Dylan is remodeling their house. All well. Also heard from Ryan and Alecia; the fires that threatened them in America turned when the wind changed so they didn't have to evacuate but they haven't seen the sky in a fortnight. Barbara also been in contact from the states; her sterling analysis of English and American politics ends with the plaintive we were so hopeful after the last war. Heartrending.

Stay well, y'all.
