A small river in the country.


 Hello Friends,
Yesterday, my husband had to go to see a patient to his home, it was far from our home, but while he was busy I could take pictures from the place. An old water mill which was producing electricity beginning of 20 century.
I asked perdition to take pictures to the owner and then this is what I saw.
The   River        Is called la Risle. It is a quite place in the middle of nowhere about 40 km from our place.
Then as it was lunch time we drove to the next village and found a “ Boulangerie “ ( bakery) to get a sandwich and water, we had lunch in a park just behind the village town hall. In the village are the ruined of a monastery dating back to 11thC, 
We drove to our favorite town to get some new books to read for the week!
I still have some problems to leave comments on blogs at the moment. I can read them but not leave a comment, I hope it will be soon back to normal!

A Sunday’s rest.



 Hello friends,
Today, my ankle is bad again and I have to wear a foot orthosis for six weeks!
Mr L is cleaning the garden chairs while I am sitting outside resting my ankle.
I have the workers for the air conditioning who are coming tomorrow and one more quote on Tuesday.
I decided which firm I will choose for the changing of doors and windows.
Here we must change our windows and doors and heating to improve the insulation of houses and use bioclimatic means of heating.
As we want to move within 3 or 4 years when MrL retires.
From where I am I can see the rose bushes  with SO many flowers!
It is hot and we are having blue sky as you can see.




I can hear the bees coming from our neighbours hives, collecting nectar from the flowers and the new born sparrows singing and looking at me from the gutter and the cooing of pigeons.
I will have a busy week and don’t know how I am going to cope with my ankle…
I hope your’re having a quiet Sunday and a good week.
