Productive Friday

As planned, I drove over to Montrichard yesterday morning. I had time to wander around at the market and picked up some asperges blanches, une barquette de fraises, and une botte de radis. Then to a bakery for deux baguettes. After that, I went to my appointment at the optical shop and ordered my new glasses. They should be ready in around eight days.

The bridge over the Cher at Montrichard.

It was a beautiful day with a bright blue, cloudless sky. After lunch I finished up the grass cutting. Now the weather is supposed to turn again. Back to chilly mornings and maybe some rain. We shall see.

    1. Of course, I did. I always look up things you write about to learn more. Sometimes I even remember what I read.
