This evening, I am breaking two of the very few rules (I am really not terribly fond of that word but then I wonder, is anyone?) that I have for myself concerning this blog: to not post when I don’t have anything to say and to not repeat myself (tricky, at times with a memory comme une passoire). For you see, while words are still escaping me, as elusive as a Louboutin glass slipper and despite my continuous wondering of whether, why and when, I do have something to share (a far better word if ever there was one, don’t you agree? Would you like a bite of cheese?). And while all of these photos were taken in the inner courtyard of the cabanon rental during our second visit last weekend, they don’t seem to me to be the skip back at the end of the record, save in subject matter.
Red Leaves. As this corner of France is not exactly open to embracing my beloved Halloween, they have become the official symbol of this quickly waning autumn. My friends, to thank you for your utter kindness regarding Lost in Arles’ baby anniversary (as well as my tolerance for the need to celebrate anything, anytime) I would spread a path of rose petals at your feet! In lieu of that, my red leaves will have to do…
Contrary as ever, France will be ‘falling back’ ahead of schedule this Sunday. Is that why I feel so muddle-headed? Perhaps.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend…are the stars shining brightly were you are?
And you are awesome, Amelia! 😉 You always, always know just what to say. And I think that you know how much I agree with you about the beauty of Nature. We are fortunate to feel that way…
Gros bisous à toi aussi!

Great minds think alike! 😉 And yep, you are only about a six (?) hour drive away!!!!
As I wrote chez toi, I looked it up and it appears that yes, you both will also fall back–just hopefully not into a canal!! :O
I would say "don't be jealous" but I see it is a part of your moniker! Heehee…
Oh Carolyn, thank you! That is really wonderful of you to say!! And what is so crazy here in Provence that autumn arrives and goes practically at the same time!!! If only it could last a bit longer…
Eeee…as much as I love the word "share" it makes me nervous as far as my photos are concerned. I am very anti-Pinterest and the like and would be happy to explain why…
But thanks for your kind words, Bon weekend!
I am so glad, Helen. And yes, that was exactly the experience, especially as we had been in September in time to see the first red leaves and to return and see so many already fallen to the ground…
Wishing you a joyful weekend as well!!
xo,
H.
I don't have the slightest clue, Sel! Sorry about that!
Well, that is you all over. While I focus on one thing and one thing only, you see the Big Picture. Always do, Suze. Hope you found what you were looking for yesterday evening…
And to you Sanda! Merci!!
Natalie, your responses are always like a poem for me–thank you!
Et Bon Weekend!
