Hint of Autumn

We arrived just in time.

Yes, this was our Sault of last weekend. Chin tucked in and elegant from afar, sporting just a touch of red. I thought of you all while admiring her.

Wondering wide but not frantic to discover, we took the backroads and drove slowly.
And somehow, even in so short a time, I am as full from seeing as if I had just inhaled a feast. 
So in need of an autumnal nap to digest before the winter.
Sleepy brain, groggy heart but happy I am.
With a new crew of dreams clinking like gold coins in my pocket.

More soon…thank you so much for being here, for staying, I can’t say that often enough…

  1. Eh, we don't have them here either in the Alpilles–not really. But it was worth the drive. Maybe you and Seb need to make a quick getaway to Vezelay? Hoping this weekend rolls out as smoothly as possible…

    Et c'est toi la belle!

  4. So pretty. It's like an autumn fantasy! We don't get these deep golden colors up here in Paris. Fall is pretty, for sure, but not nearly as magical as your autumn!

    Good thing I have access to such beauty through you. Merci ma belle!

  5. Aaaahh!!! Blogo'rama! Heeheehee. I must be foggy brained indeed for I turn my head away and poof! Many, many comments from of my favorite blog friends on the planet! I hope you all will forgive me for not responding more personally but I sure do appreciate them!!!

    PS. Yes, I did take a nap today. On a Tuesday no less!

  6. Such autumn splendor, I feel the need for a nap (or a daydream) myself! Thanks for sharing your photos, as lovely as ever. So glad your weekend was beautiful.

  7. I'm so glad you guys can get out to see a little autumn! Here it is past the prime, but it looks like it's just starting there? At any rate, your photos are soooo beautiful, and I hope your groggy heart can pick up on the love I'm sending you!

  8. Beautiful Autumn journey Heather thank-you for taking us on it! Great pics as always.
    Thank-you for the Birthday wishes and your lovely thoughts for my year ahead sounds exciting Carla xx

  9. Sault's location high on a hill takes full advantage of its paranomic view. Amazing how our hearts and all of our senses expand when we behold this kind of beauty. Enjoy your autumnal break at this gorgeous corner of the Luberon.

  10. It's impossibly beautiful – just picture postcard so. And all with that soft glow of autumn, to add her velvety cloak around such beauty. xx

  11. Hello Heather

    Sault looks very exciting. I cannot wait to learn more about this magical place.

    Your images are again superb.

  14. Will look forward to the peeks you give us inside – hoping you did make it in??!! Cheers!! Wonderful!!

  16. Your words and photographs from Sault are teaching me how to look so that I more fully see. What wonderful explorers you, Ben and Remi are! Fondly from Oregon, Leslie

  18. A beautiful post which evokes strong and delightful memories of this wonderful village. Thank you. Bisous.

  22. It looks so gorgeous perched on the hill. I am starting to fall a bit in love with Sault myself. It's a wonderful place to get away from it all and just be.
