Summer
- Gallery, Garden, Studios, Chambres etc. - June + 2005!
The new ARTBOAT. Comfortable, stable, safe and big
enough for eight.
My earlier planning of the flower gardens is paying
off with a series of opening blossoms as the season progresses.
My crayfish basket is also doing well. The first new
sign for Le Paradou is put up. At night during a full moon at
the bottom of my garden is the perfect place to play music on
my Overton, echoing down the gorge.
The new, temporary, bedrooms in the Hall are virtually
ready, as is the workshop. Electrics have at last been done.
At last the bar area is clear and gallery lighting
done ( but with fire regulations and further planning all of this
will later change completely in 2007) .
Top left - meat fondue (bowl of hot oil into which
meat is dipped, cooked and then sauce added from the plate to
eat immediately). Other photos, French friends at dinner - Menu
, local mushrooms in soup, roast French wild Boar etc.
September Mushrooms after rain and warm nights!
The Medieval Festival Estaing - September.
A trip To Estaing on the boat.
Reflections September - the day "Place in the
Sun" filmed locally. They were going to film on my "artboat"
but constant rain wrecked this until that last morning - when
no time was left!
