No sweeter music.

Can there be anything more deeply satisfying than tramping through fields of lush, green fields with cows vacantly watching your heavy labours through the mist? Perhaps, but no other joy is available to me this morning so that’s what I have been doing. I loved it. Meadows and forest surround my current abode, just as it was at the country cottage near Domfront in Normandie where I’ve been staying of late. Both have slow, wide rivers passing through with over-hanging trees, great picnic country. As I tramped through the fields and through the woods at a disgracefully early hour (I’m told) I met no-one today. In the absence of human chatter I rose from the log I like to sit upon to applaud the symphony of water, birdsong, growing grass and gentle mooing. No sweeter music.

Hello, I am so glad to read your post, I was concerned, I was almost ready to ask Admin if there was a way to contact you and check if you were fine. Those early hours of the day are the best moments.

Good to see you. Love those lush green fields. Nature is an amazing place to enjoy. And the absence of human chatter is a huge bonus.

@caroldm I know. Why to people need to talk so much and so loudly? They don’t usually have anything of interest or importance to say yet they yammer on at the top of their voices no matter where they happen to be.

@xFiacre I never understood that about people. Peace and quiet is so underrated by many.

@CarolDM People I meet on my forest walks are often listening to boom-boom music on headphones!! What’s that all about?

I wish our house had this view. It must be nice to just relax and drink coffee while looking outside.
