La vallée du Cher

Here's a view of the Cher River valley from up on the heights near our house. This view exists because the electric company keeps a clear swath cut down the hill for the wires that serve our hamlet. I removed the wires from this photo using Photoshop.

Looking across the Cher valley toward the north.

So now the four a.m. car mystery is pretty much solved, it seems. The problem is that I will hear that darned car every morning, at least while I have the windows open. I don't know if it's a new thing or not because before we started sleeping in the loft space, the bedroom was on the other side of the house. Maybe the car has been turning around there at four a.m. for months and I didn't know it!
