October sunrise and clouds

Here's a set of pictures, in chronological order, that I took in the Renaudière vineyard yesterday, October 5, 2019. It was sunrise, meaning between eight and eight-thirty a.m. The slide show is made up of 15 images and runs for about two minutes.



I'm going into high gear to get everything ready for my upcoming trip to North Carolina. I leave in three or four days. I don't worry too much about packing clothes. I take very few articles of clothing over there and just buy whatever I turn out to need along the way. Clothes are so much less expensive in the U.S. than in France. I mean clothes of comparable quality. It's not easy to shop for clothes here because it means driving to Blois, Tours, or Orléans, all between 45 and 90 minutes away — whereas in Morehead City it's easy, with all the big-box stores just a few miles from where I'll be staying.

    1. We were very lucky to find and be able to buy this house. I never thought I'd spend so much time here. By this time next year, we will have lived here as long as we lived in California. And almost as long as I lived in coastal Carolina.

  2. It's not too early to wish you a flight as nice as mine a few days ago. I'll repeat that later. Bis repetita placent.

  4. Nice pics. This time of year you may encounter Indian Summer and find you don;t need much in the way of clothes. Smart to buy in US and bring them back.

    1. According to Accuweather's forecasts for Morehead City, it's going to be warm (75-80°) and mostly sunny the whole time I'm there.
