A glorious morning....

A moment of melancholy...
....when our lovely guests from Ohio, US were ready
to head-off further South of France and Spain,
but not without leaving a wonderful present for us...
....a beautiful Orchid, carefully chosen with love!
Au revoir - Annie and Pieter, it was great to meet you!
Bon voyage!

Hot afternoon....
...in our little town Riberac...
...and at La Pouyette, 28 degrees in shade!

Yes - Oskar, who else!
Whenever and wherever he sees an old chair or basket or anything old...
he thinks that it is just arranged for him!

Late afternoon...

Early evening...
and a lovely sunset...

A beautiful "Altweibersommer" !
Bon Weekend!

Salut, c'est Christine de Californie. Nous avons des flores memes. I have a plant that you have shown here in your post. It is now changing color to autumn color. Altweibersommer next to the green door, last post and in a previous photo? We call it Virginia Creeper. I love it...very green in summer and beautiful autumn color later! It requires nothing. How exciting to know that your flora and fauna is the same as ours in many ways!
ReplyDeleteYour end of September looks like ours only neater, the weather hasn't been letting us out but tonight is gorgeous. Rick and Dylan are out front laying in the leaves enjoying the evening breeze. Beautiful post Karin and thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful autumnal colour and the orchid is exquisite! It would be sad to say goodbye to newly-made friends; hope you meet them again.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos ...I hope I am in France experiencing such lovely weather and light in Autumn next year. Autumn is my favourite time of year.
ReplyDeleteBon weekend.
What a nice and peaceful environment have you got at La Pouyette!
ReplyDeleteKarin!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos as always! Glad to know Oskar is doing well and thriving! :) Can't believe summer is over and fall is here! Looking forward to your fall garden shots!
Joy to you!

Your place as usual looks great in the Autumn light. What a nice gift from your visitors!!!!!Love Oscar....... Maryanne xo ( mine does the same thing on anything JUST WASHED!)
ReplyDeleteOMG, Karin, I didn't realize Annie & Pieter had visited. Isn't this the most wonderful thing? Making friends via blogging. I'm so happy to see a pic of Pieter, goodness, he's tall, isn't he? And, your photographs make to feel as if I am with you (& wishing I were). Sending love, my friend. See you on Tuesday....
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're having the same fantastic weather we are enjoying here in London! I have just posted about the Battersea fair, but wanted also to tell you that both James Jackson and Toby Lorford were so charming and friendly when I introduced myself. Both spoke about you with the greatest affection and admiration! Thank you so much again, and I hope you enjoy my few photos. Karen xx
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos, Karin. Just breathtaking. How fun to meet and visit with Annie and Pieter. I have come to love Annie through our blog friendship. Friends have become the best part. Happy Sunday. Mona
ReplyDeleteThe sunlight is so beautiful this time of year, dancing over the golden grAsses and turning leaves - all seems gilded and more magical in early Autumn.
ReplyDeleteI am sure that your guests were sad to go.
Oskar has the right idea!
Beautiful photos.
Happy weekend,
Isa
