bucolic french countryside









A large part of my blog, and my life actually, is all about seeing the beauty around me.  Not everyone will appreciate the attraction of a herd of dairy cows, but these girls stopped me in my tracks as they meandered down to drink in the river.

Another month or so and they'll be kept in barns for the winter, so nice to see them enjoying the sunshine and green grass.






Wishing you a happy weekend,
 may you also enjoy a little unexpected beauty.








And look at this!   Linda, of the blog All new at 62, was inspired by these pictures, and sent me a copy of her lovely drawing - quite wonderful - thank you Linda!!
