Since the end of the season we have been in Antibes, Berlin and England. Planning for 2014 is well underway with a few loose ends to tie up before we can confirm the dates.
October has been a warm and sunny month and one of our neighbours commented the other day that we could still be running courses, the weather has been so stunning. The warmth has meant that the garden needs watering and today the Rosa Banksiae decided to have another go at flowering. It has put forth a clutch of rosebuds and an open bloom, its first since May!
We appreciate a chance to get out and explore the valley before the winter sets in and we are always looking for new outcrops of ocher which might serve as painting spots. This abandoned quarry near Roussillon provided us with some spectacular shapes and colour juxtapositions.

As well as some very beautiful mushrooms lurking in the soft sandy soil.
Although it is sad to see the ending of a year,there are the memories to look back on and the antisipation of what lies ahead in the coming year,Syls
