Summer daze

I have to say, as much as we groaned and complained about our cold, wet spring, we are thoroughly enjoying the spell of dry, warm, summery weather we're having now. It's nice to soak up the sunlight, hang out in t-shirts and shorts (barefoot!), and visit markets and châteaux in the great weather

Our hamlet, seen from the west looking over the vineyards and the Cher River Valley beyond.

And walking Callie is nice, too. Dry dogs are happy dogs. Well, wet dogs are also happy dogs, but their owners, not so much.
