Rians rooftops

We aren't the only ones up on the terrasse watching the swallows at day's end
This is our neighbor Annie's (naughty) cat, he is not allowed up on the roof or the beams, but when has a cat ever taken no for an answer.

Market Day in St-Maximin la Sainte Baume













Rians - home sweet home again

Back on the street where we live, with our very own "private" parking space. We did our spring cleaning, unpacked and headed to the terrace with our bottle of white wine and a dish of olives...to watch the evening swallow show over the village.
Most of the village cats are pretty skittish, hugging the perimeters, but this guy just sat and posedImpressive bracing (they've been working on it for years), but all the old buildings are preserved
