The Winter

This week-end, the Winter made a show up !
Unfortunately, our central heating system did want to work : the specialist said that it was not enough fuel in the tank, but after a large amount added, it appears to be more complex !
As a result, it’s quite cold, and we have tough time trying to get some comfort from the cheminy.
The neighbour’s horse is teking this with philosophy :

First year !

Celebration ! with champagne and toasts, of course !
Nothing like a end of period report, because the story goes on, and we’re happy with that !
Anyway, some feelings about this new life : in comparison with the big city, it’s less promixuity and more proximity, loosing some anonymousness.
Friends are more difficult to keep because going out during the week is a nightmare due to never ending traffic jams, so there are sometime to dedicate to them on the week-end, againt the country side way of life.
For the work, it’s a success, with a smooth transition, and a good balance between work from home and flex office. I think I transmit the idea to my closer colleagues and friends. Managers are also very happy with this organization : thanks Sun Microsystems, it’s worth mention it !
If we had a second chance ? we mau have spend more time in the final choice, even it’s not sure :  we felt in love for this small old house, and the difficulties are balanced by the pleasure that we get from it in return.

Fall sweetness

What a breakfast in a after-season mood.

But, what is this season ?

Harvest by night

During this wet summer, people are forced to harvest late in the night.

Once I was at the dechetery, I had a chance to see a corn delivery to the silo.

Very nice scene in a not full darkness.
