Autumn again (enjoying a bottle of Argento Cabernet and some new CDs).
Some 12 months ago I moved up here. Which is relative. For one, we're at 2'500 feet above Sea level. Not very high. And secondly a part of me loves Cities and has left a suitcase there. Which is why I hit Munich, London and whatever Metropolis my purse hints at me I can get away to.
Still, this is the right place to be. Or ... one of them. Not a lot of traffic as the little road in front of the house ends about an hours walk further to the left and up the hills. From there on, you'll meet wanderers and bikers only. The village is about a 45 minutes walk to your right.
My flat is on that level where you can see the shutters closed on one window. Remember the winter pics I posted? They were taken from there. The painting studio is on the left, overhanging side of the building.
A balcony with afternoon sun is on the right side of the house. And if you're on for morning sun or the full moon you want to step out on the small elevated porch behind the building.
I don't see much of that morning glory, though - unless I have to get up early to finish some job for a client, like today. This time it was for a new US cigarette brand. Yesterday it was for a Credit Card. Two days before I spent the early hours on advertising an American SUV.
Wish I had one of those and soon. Lady de Winter is bound to greet us with her icy grace any day now.
But for now: dear Sun, dear bringer of light not quite eternal ... stay with me. The peperoni on the balcony need a couple more days before I can harvest them! And as I am speaking of harvest. Here's how they do it on Cassiopeia:

Your home and the area surrounding it are so lovely- so peaceful.
I loved seeing this- thank you for letting us see part of your everyday world~
Those are some beautiful images. I just came from the fair Mayden's site--a woman of substance--and I want to know her friends. I need to read your profile to understand this moving business.
hey ben. i am alone in the forest this week. its freezing cold today but its beautiful. theres a low bank of cloud in the west and to the east the sun is briliant and hits the tips of golden and red leaves as they fall. its hard to spot birds and other wildlife because all the movement disracts. i am glad you live in a beautiful place. it is one of the greatest gifts in life. i know you appreciate it.
hi ben. thinking of you. thx for the email. yes ... i'm quite unbelievable, ain't i?
switzerland is sooo pretty. thx for reminding me just how pretty.
the painting ... love the colours. that thing in the field of this piece - it sorta makes me think of those oil wells/refineries that dot the alberta landscape.
i'm off to the british columbia rain forest soon - about a week. it will feel like entering the garden of eden, after being here in dead-ville for far too long.
you know who this is ...
oooooh!
BEN!!!!!!!!
Good One!!!
