Hello everyone! We are in the Luberon but due to a storm on Christmas Day there is no internet or phone at the cottage. So we have driven up to a mountaintop to say Hello to the world, the sun is taking its final bow and the view is beautiful. In these final days of 2013, I have been focusing on gratitude more than ever and that most certainly applies to all of you, who have given such support, joy and kindness. I thank you with all of my heart. I am signing out as the sun goes down on one year, while eagerly awaiting the arrival of the next. And although I most likely will not be in touch again until after January 6th, please know that I am sending wishes of peace, prosperity, health and many wonderful discoveries in 2014…until then I leave you with these images of the reeds of the Camargue that bend in the wind and yet resist, snapping back to stand tall.
With all of my Very Best,
Heather
OMG Happy Days and Good Fortune Heather for this year of the Horse!
These are exceptional shots – wow!!!
Gorgeous photos. Thank you Heather and Happy New Year to you and your fellas. xo Judith
Bonne année 2014, Heather et Rémi (et les chiens) ! I have not left many comments during this hectic year, but I stopped by often to visit your blog. Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos with all your readers. I am so glad I visited today, just in time to wrap up 2013, and noticed the hilarious comment by the ever entertaining Monsieur Terry… Amuse-toi bien Heather, et bonnes vacances !

It will be New Year here soon. I'll let you know how it is, if you like, but I am sure you will want to join in anyway. Many blessings for a wonderful 2014 to you, Remi and the puppers.
The Camargue is definitely on my to visit list! So very beautiful! Thank you for the pictures Heather!
I wish you a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year !

Dear Heather
Thank you for these beautiful images. I am happy you are away in Camargue with such natural beauty. Your timing was perfect to capture the horse at sunset.
Wishing you & Remi a very Happy New Year and goodness, joy and travel in 2014.
Thank you for your blog, your visits and comments.

P.S. Need I emphasize that the-above is a PARODY? Amusingly/Horrifyingly (I still can't decide which) enough, at least two francophile bloggers (you'd recognize the names) and I have confessed to the guilty pleasure of regularly perusing the blog of another Francophile blogger who's quite publicly expressed the burning desire to go to Paris (and, presumably, to the rest of France as it falls under her fervent sway)…..to be a "Christian Missionary". I've gathered that the French need to "know" Jesus.
I have no idea what this woman thinks Notre Dame, St. Suplice, St. Chapelle, and several other large (and rather old) Parisian buildings are…..extra-fancy Walmarts?
I was grimly delighted to read that she would like to join the "Africans" who preach on the corners in certain arrondisements. I thought "Oh…..go right ahead, Sister…". She doesn't seem to realize that she would be consorting with the most conservative Christians since the Dominicans ("Dogs of God") who managed The Inquisition were running around Europe. Which is to say that, yes, they would like to execute gays, burn protestants, and enforce any number of other rather antiquated practices….including, rather ironically, severely punishing women who dared to preach.
In any case,l was joking when I began berating Sinful Heather. to be honest, I'd be a bit disappointed if she legally married Remi; my own life is an uutterly respectable & domesticated one these past ten years……so, I like to think that at least SOMEONE'S still out there having wicked fun.
