Reflection of the Chateau Tower in the Lake. |
An extremely weathered STOP sign in Caylus. I think it
suits the town. It was on a back road rarely used.
Unusual they aren't in French.
Bleeding hearts grow wild everywhere and there is something about the light in southern France that makes the blues, violets and purples just glow. |
Love those hose down pay toilettes. I visited the town Montauban, about one hour away and the bus cost 17 Euros round trip. Yikes. |
A tiny 13th C church perched on a hilltop overlooking the Bonnette River Valley and surrounding farmland. It is a few kilometres from Caylus. |
View from the church across the valley to surrounding hills. Very lush and beautiful vegetation.

The aperitif every afternoon after a long one hour walk/hike. I was becoming a regular. |
I want one of those above my door! Such lovely details that make the houses so magical. |
Another car event in the village square. This time it was French classics. Really amazing designs and colours. |
These folks were really having fun. They walk around town, have some wine and food at the cafe and roll on down the road to the next village. |
On one of our daily hikes/walks, Sue and I found a little waterfall. |
Morning cafe creme at the other bar/cafe in town on the main street. One of the important rituals of the day. |
View of Caylus from a hike we often took. My house was SW of the tower, second house down. The tower is apparently full of bats. |
Front door lock at Drawinternational. Each door had a unique and heavy duty locking mechanism. The key to this door is huge. |
One of the many mossy passageways in Caylus. |
