I leave the wonderful comforts of Normandy today, and went for a nice early morning stroll to breath the fresh country air before I depart. The fog was lifting off the ground, the sun coming in, the frost on the apples shimmering like decorations and the swallows doing their loops and figure 8's, and I will miss it here.
I have been completely spoiled here, my senses satisfied in ways only the French country side can deliver. Hence, it has been complete in its perfection, a perfect amount of time and balance of weather, of quiet time, forest walks and then social events. I leave in gratitude and pleasure, knowing I have shared with Le Perche all the glorious exchanges of the season and enjoyed all her earthly delights..
