Echinacea with small butterfly.

Back in France and the garden is enjoying an autumn surge.  Insects too; butterflies, bees and, of course all the little biters.  We got some grass cutting done, but it was an energy sapping 32 degrees, so we had to curtail our efforts in the garden. We went shopping to stock up again with all the niceties of French food and wine.  Later, Janice, Carol, Peter and Chris joined us for aperos; there was much joviality.
