Hi Susan:
We had a wonderful time at your place and exploring a bit. Our first Sunday and our last Friday meal were up in the mountain restaurant (Auberge de Combes).
We met a wonderful couple from Switzerland on the Sunday, the wife of whom owns and runs a vineyard, Clos D’Eve, and they were sharing her last bottle and planning to restock them. She later took us around her vineyard operation as she slowly rebuilds it (now 7 years). Building a home, meanwhile renting. He’s finishing up in the IT dept. of the Swiss Army, so a bit of a commuter marriage.
Hit a couple of the day markets, loved the one on Monday.
The only disappointing day was spent going down to the coast to Agde and Sete. Never discovered the charm though we had some oysters in the little protected port area.
We did some hiking, mostly in the vineyards, and went up into the Alpine area beyond the wonderful restaurant; lovely there.
Loved your terrace patio and the quiet village you’re in. You have a lovely place and we’re grateful we found you in the Harvard magazine.
Dave
