Related: About this forumI was lucky enough to visit Provence a few weeks ago.
I took LOTS of photos but wanted to share these two with you.
First, this charming town, Gordes, sitting on the hill.
And this wonderful, cranky old vine framing a window:

And it doesn't hurt that there's a fabulous looking temple (?) at the top of the hill.
The window is gorgeous too, with that vine all around.
Nicely done, and thanks for sharing!

My husband and I honeymooned in France almost 30 years ago. We loved Provence--and I remember
Gordes. Last May we got to visit some friends in Aix en Provence--just overnight--before taking the TGV to
Paris. Beautiful country, isn't it?
