Easter

We made a long weekend of the already long easter-weekend, went upp to Anthonys parents in Lorraine (close to Forbach). Thursday morning we started with bying me a new car. My first new car, completely red, a Twingo, serie Rip Curl (means red details inside and some other small things). I cannot show you it on picture because it’ll be finished in july… I’m longing to have it. Specially since my old car decided to stop working the day before. It could have been just a strike, but since it’s not a french car we think it’s more serious. Happened when I was in antibes at lunch, when I wanted to go back to work it just didn’t start. Luckily I was parked on a free parking because the same evening we were going to the airport, so no chance to move it. We got it yesterday lunch with anthonys car and a rope, interesting trip from Antibes to Valbonne through roundabouts and all.

Then the rest of the vacation we ate, drank good wine, talked with the family and most of all, spent the time on the fields with fruit trees. The trees were abandoned for many years, some already dead. We started this work last time we were up, and this time we cut down four, planted six new and cleaned many others. I spent several hours on the lawn mower tractor cutting the grass, funny!

Choupie running with spring energy!
We managed to forget almost all the pictures on a usb stick in his parents house, I’ll try to add them later. Among the other pictures I have one showing how Choupie was spending most of the time while we were working with the trees.
