Saturday

I woke up and had my breakfast while enjoying the news. I got to have a long phone call with my mom, dad, and cat. We chatted about market plans for the summer and all the things we’re excited to do when I get home. I’m getting more and more excited to see people. Even with social distancing and masks, being in the same vicinity as the people you care about really is just miles better than having a phone call. I’m excited to get back to that.

When the call ended, I decided that I should get out there and enjoy my little village while I could. I took off on a walk around town. Before I really got going, I dropped off some items that I won’t be bringing back to the US at a donation bin near town hall. Despite it being a cloudy and windy day, I did enjoy getting out there and listening to my podcasts.

Fields of “colza” flowers. They make canola oil.
The remains of a church on the hillside.
The fields are so bright you can see them from afar!
A look at the Rhône. During the summer the water level falls and more land appears. People go swimming down there and enjoy the beach.

For dinner, I tried to go over to the Bodet house. However, when I went in, it seemed that no one was home. I crept back out the door and went back to my place for a sloppy joe. I watched movies and chatted with friends the rest of the night.
