I am simply offering up some happy-inducing photos of a walk in the Alpilles today. No diatribe, no philosophy, just a dose of swashbuckling sun that is so bright you might ask to turn down the sky!
What? You are still feeling sleepy and wintery? Really? Ok, here you go…
To listen (and loudly):
Have a great weekend everyone! Hope that there is light and happiness wherever you are…
I love that Ben & Kipliing go everywhere with you. Kipling is looking so at home now, not shy at all is he?
Good for you !!
These photos made me smile.
Aah, the ruggedness and the simple earthiness of that terrain! I can almost smell the olive trees and the woody bushes and that fresh air. Do you ever pinch yourself and think "Wow, I'm living in France" or are you now totally used to being there and away from the noise and bustle of New York?
I'm enjoying your IG photos!
Cheers,
Deb C from Melbourne
Oh, the light… stunning!
What a beautiful, beautiful place you live in!! Wide open, blue sky and olive trees, heaven 🙂 ( and puppers!)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCHHHHHHHHHEEE!
(That's 'ache' in wail.)

The rain had left. I’m well awake enjoying Napa Valley’s subdued bright sun. I would love to walk there in Alpilles under the olive grove and gaze at the hills. I can go with Ben and Kipling.
Did Cezanne ever painted Alpilles?
Oh, * sigh sigh sigh*. Now that I know the smell of this landscape…. Because I was just there two days ago… Stunning – Spring is definitely coming.
Beautiful Photos, Heather! And Kipling looks so happy. Its a pleasure to see that.
I am back to "Workingland" (That is Germany) And it was great to have visited the region around Arles. Fromages et Saussisons ont survecue le vol! (;
And concering your last post: Remi's saying is wise in every direction!
Bisous et bon weekend!
What a lovely post, Heather! A sharp contrast to the one I wrote this week – it is good to see the sun and the beauty that your world is filled with. . .it is a good reminder to be happy!
Sometimes a quiet walk is all you need – especially with such good fury company. Ben and Kipling look like they're enjoying themselves! Thanks for the beautiful blue skies and signs of spring.
Happy Weekend! XOXO
