My photos for March.
I've had to do a lot of digging in my photo files to submit this time,
as I'm still not well and I'm now waiting to go into hospital for some treatment.
So please excuse my effort.
M. for mushroom.
This is a field mushroom which we often collect during Sept and Oct,
it's the first time I've seen one as big as this.
I made cream of mushroom soup with it.
Mr France found this in September in the farmers field which is next to our boundary.
Some Holly berries on the trees near our house.
This was taken in the late evening last summer
of the Monastery in Rocamadour lit up.
This grate is our French 'Godin' wood-burner. with the door open.
The chimney breast, which we built in our guest house .
The bricks where from inside the old bread oven which unfortunately
we were unable to save, it was too badly damaged.
Some troughs and a hanging basket
with Surfinas and trailing Geraniums
on our summer balcony.
A cold crisp morning ,
showing the frost on the ground and white on the tiles of our well.
A souvenir from our visit to the Basque region in France, which borders Spain.
This was my ticket from our ride on Le Petite Train up the mountain.
The views were fantastic.
It's difficult to find a coloured door in my region of France.
Most of the properties are old stone cottages and have heavy oak doors ,
which are usually protected with a stain and not paint.
So this is my painted door.
I hope you liked seeing my contribution.
