Early June in Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne

June is a good month. Just out of spring and the beginning of summer it is gloriously green. Thunderstorms still providing lots of rainwater and shows of lightning. This is the view this morning about 0900 as I took our dog for a run and swim. It was calm and peaceful except for the occasional splashes of our labrador retrieving his buoy. He loves to run in the grass under the oak trees. It is cool and soft under his paws and he just runs and runs like nowhere else. It is a serene place.

Luka and his buoy, happy times always

a hole in the clouds and another beautiful sunset

2 things you will see almost everywhere here are walnut trees and the big brown limousin cattle. The nuts are taking shape and are larger than an olive at the moment. The nuts are pressed to make oil and are of course also sold as the whole nut.

limousin cow, they are everywhere!

The cows are enjoying grazing in the fields. The grass is tall and lush after all the spring rains. They seem curious and give a stare as we pass by.

It is a beautiful place to live and explore.
