Saturday
A warm, cloudy day in Anthon! I set out on my walk early in the day to avoid the predicted afternoon showers. I got to hear the Jane Eyre/ Mr. Rochester proposal chapter which was somehow more awkward to listen to than it was to read. Because of recent rains, the Rhône has been incredibly flooded. Things seemed to be returning to normal though! I saw my little swan friends across the way as I entered the trail.
When I finished up my jaunt around the village, I peeked out from the pool behind the house to check the water level. It remained high, but had definitely fallen to some degree.
I spent the rest of my evening painting and watching movies that my friend Elizabeth suggested. I tried “Hail Cesar” and “Superbad.” I got a good laugh from both. It’s so weird having time to watch new movies!
