On my list of “Things I’ll miss in France” is what are called “épisodes cévénols”: wicked rain storms with thunder and lightning. Our medieval village looks awesome when viewed from our terrace!
The problem is, that often leads to flooding. And that’s what we experienced today when we went to a nearby town for Michelle’s book club. After the 3rd time we saw road closures due to flooding, we decided to turn around and come back. Good thing, as the book club had been cancelled due to the weather…

Bizarre, mais les “épisodes cévénols” vont me manquer, ces orages puissants qui font trembler les murs de notre maison médiévale. Ce qui est moins drôle c’est quand ces épisodes provoquent des inondations, comme ce fut le cas aujourd’hui…
