A June postcard
The months are flying by rapidly and we’ve already sent off 6 postcards of 13, almost halfway through. For this card to Martin, I decided on the vineyards here in Correze…our specialty wines, Vin paillé, meaning straw wine. The grapes are semi dried on straw beds and then pressed.

…and the post card… vin paillé of Correze

And how is your new gallery going? All sold out? Such energy…such talent in so many ways. Have thoroughly enjoyed the postings by you and your friends in Provence.
