I was walking around the village of Lourmarin, in Provence, today, and it struck me that all around there were examples of peoples’ creativity. That creation above was quirky but really quite fun. It was hanging on the shutter of a first floor window. A little further down another set of shutters caught my eye.
I don’t know if the lady who lived in this house had this tile made especially, or if one of her relatives gave her it as a gift, but I did like it!
At the end of the next narrow street my eye was captured by this incredible blue –
Then round on the main street leading down to the main square I did some window shopping (that’s the only kind of shopping you can do on a Monday in French villages – everything is closed on Sundays and Mondays…..civilised! Maybe they use the time to paint!)
Heroes Not Zombies 
Thank you for the wonderful trip. Your post touches with love and awakens the wonder – the longing for the dew of my sundown.
The closed windows are grateful for your taking of notice of them. I too rejoice over your hearing of the silence that frees us from ourselves.
I love this slice of French life!! So atmospheric. So sunny – so far away from the snow we have in the Alps at the moment!
I have a (very boring) technical question for you bob, how do you post more than one photo from flickr on to the same post?? I have set up a flickr account, and I can make a post of a photo, but I want to have a photo narrative, like you, on one post only, how is this done so that I retain the link to my flickr site???
thanks for your help!!!!
thankyou Tomas, such wonderfully kind comments.
Tawny, thank you too. I’m going to email you the instructions for using flickr with wordpress. I might write a post about it sometime too.
