Weeds ni the river.

 

Two Weekes back from Provence.

 

Went out into my garden yesterday and took 50 pictures in it for the first time since April. Very overgrown and jungly. Janie and I have spent an hour or so every morning since we got back pulling weeds and pruning bushes. Hard in this heat and humidity but so gratifying after three months with only 5 pots of very hardy herbs to tend to. I do like the sweaty work but only have so much stamina at eighty...sigh.

Apt cemetery, Holga

The Apt cemetery is huge and packed with lovely crypts and headstones. The Holga lens seems particularly suited to here.

We were all sticking our noses into Lourmarin shops on a non-market day and Ian waited for us.
