Sunny lull

After several yet more grey, cold, wet days it was lovely to see the sunshine today accompanied by warmer temperatures.  The surrounding hills glowed and birdsong was in the air.  All a real lift to the spirits. We set off to Verdun to a supermarket for a light lunch and for supplies and afterwards to the canal-side at Vacherauville.  




Unfortunately, by the time we parked by the canal, the forecasted east wind had decided to make an early entrance so it was a briefer stop there than we had hoped.



The canal and river run closely at this point.

Basically, if your dog doesn't clear up after himself it's down to you!

Nevertheless although this seems to be just a lull in the wintry weather it was very welcome and a promise of better days to come - even if there is a return to wintry conditions in the meantime.

Good to see sunshine rather than snow in the forests on the ridge!


Spring?
