Wood delivery & les Marais at St Benoist

As you can see the time machine is in full action. Mid-November and the annual log delivery for our living room fire (or fi-ya as Sacha calls it)!

The logs all beautifully arranged when they arrive

Going,

going,

done! Merci Matt & Cynthia, all sorted in record time too.

A couple of weeks later and the glorious weather tempted us to the marshes at St Benoist, less than 15 minutes from La Tranche

You can practise your French here. The green parts are the marshes/reclaimed land. La Tranche is hidden bottom left.

I'll let the photos do the commentary

This is an overflow for extremely wet weather

Don't be fooled by the sun and the blue sky. It was bitterly cold!
