I saw a lot of seashells (down by the seashore) while strolling on the beach at Oléron. Nothing unexpected there. Most were broken, but this snail stood out. Of course it did... it once had a foot.

Yesterday felt almost balmy as the temperature rose to the high single digits. Still, the ground and everything else outdoors is still quite cold, so it didn't feel as good as it might have. This morning, the thermometer reads just over 6ºC, about 43ºF.
Spring will be here before you know it (or maybe not). Oh how I loathe escargot. Escarstop!
ReplyDeleteMitchell, I will happily eat your share of escargot anytime!

I like that sidebar photo of the ironwork for the well... just noticed it up there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful texture in this photo.
