Thursday round-up

 Today is fresh after welcome rain in the night - its been a little too hot hereabouts. The whole town smells of lavender.

 Yesterday Kat and Margaret and I decamped to work en plein air and it was hard, despite we were in Couza at the little charming river Salz. Redeemed by lunch;

at the Pink Hotel in Rennes les Bains. Here's the view...

Pretty good day :) 

If like me you keep forgetting to deal with this, pay attention now -

Other news of the world - Allenna has made it back to Toronto, a 24 hr trip with delays and  baggage drama, all now OK: and here in nearby Limoux the cafe by the station has re-opened.... La Gare d'Eden, great name :)
