Moments Lost in Time.

We are back! Finally, from the Loire Valley, with all accompanying grand-kids intact. It is now time to leave poor Trevor the Troll (our home on wheels) in his cave for the winter.

For us: it's time for down-time. Time to relax. To wind down. To listen to the blues. To read anything but the news. 

To chill.

The weather also is in chill mode. The first snows of the season have waited for us to arrive in our mountain domain. It is, however, only about a millimetre thick at best, so don't pack your skis just yet awhile.

The colours though. 

Stunning. 

Summer is dying in style.

The bright sun brings out the colour and the contrast. Perfect conditions to enjoy nature by steeping ourselves in it, maybe with a long mountain walk?

The mountain weather, as per bloody usual, has other ideas. The rain sets in, clouds fill the valley, giving us a stark choice. 

Walk in the wind and rain. 

Or...

... home sweet home...

Guess our response. It matched Sky's.

All of which gives me time to play with my photos and time-lapse videos.

First off, here is a video combining photos and videos, showing the end of summer up here in our little corner of paradise. Watch the clouds dance:

Then for those of you still with me, this is my first, and almost certainly my last, attempt at sci-fi:
