Taking a Bite Out of Autumn: T's Make Most of Days Before the Wet Season Pours In

























Sun sets over almost-finished cleaning of tennis court




Sunset also on the greenhouse

















Dateline Normandy -- A dry Limesy is a good Limesy and P and are taking advantage of the few sunny hours that remain before l'arrivee of less interesting climes. Daily sorties to the orchard for sweet, ripe apples are on the menu while Gaston continues to gorge on the pears that P picks for him. A few chateau flowers continue to blossom even amid the chilly temps while leaves turn golden and start to fall. And the cycle continues. Thank goodness for big fireplaces and Saint-Emilion. ~30~

S, your photography skills equal your writing skills. The story your pictures tell is totally enchanting. You cover the "water front" so beautifully. I feel that I have had a short visit with all of you and che Chateau.
