February at Chenevaux

Auberge de l'Etoile at St Pierre de Maille

A few days ago we decided to go to our village restaurant for lunch.  They offer a daily menu or "plat du jour" which is always good and very reasonably priced.  As it wasn't raining ( for a change) we decided to walk down and on the way back through the village we went past this car with the picture of the proud tractor owner in the back window!

My other car's a tractor!

In between the days of rain we have had some fair weather and it has been very mild in comparison to past winters since we moved here ( 9 years since we bought Chenevaux on 18th Feb 2005!).  Snowdrops, hellebores, daffs and even some irises are in flower.

Mark has been busy in the studio getting work done for the spring when we are opening the studio to the public again for the week end of 4/5/6 April, you can see more at www.markjudsonart.blogspot.com.

At the moment the only thing we really want, along with huge numbers of others no doubt, is for the weather to dry up, lets hope it does so soon.
