Throughout the summer, I have been sharing photos of Jane's beautiful flowers with you. She began calling them "Jam Jar" Bouquets (with shorter stems) and worked with a mutual friend during the summer to sell them at some markets nearby in Tour de Faure and St. Gery. Saturdays and Sundays she'd usually be running out to prepare and take her bouquets to be sold.
A number of us have commented that there really aren't any flowers at the Cajarc market. I'm hoping that she considers Cajarc for next summer season.
The season is relatively short here for tourism. I was surprised that it's really only a couple weeks in July and then all of August!
I hate to say it, but I'm happy when the tourists go home. The Intermarche, the traffic, and unending events can be a little overwhelming at times.
I got good at working around it all.
September feels like heaven at the moment.
Tuesday was the second time that I had been over to the terrain with Jane. The last time most of the flowers had been picked and bouquet-ed up, but this time was a different story. All the color, texture, pastoral scenes, and progress that she and Sidney have made on this project astound me.
It is a beautiful place.
Friends, flowers, and stones make me happy!
I'm thinking that next summer I'm going to talk to Jane about planting a flower garden similar to this but smaller, of my own. I don't really want to sell them, but maybe I could be a "back-up" garden for Jane.
I'm just going to keep pondering on in to next season and see where it takes us.
I leave you with a bit of a flower collage to enjoy.
Happy Friday!
