We are buried under so much snow here in Tahoe that we will likely be skiing into July. I’ve been sick, though, which means I’m inside, where the air is just a little bit smoky from the woodstove. And that reminds me of the air in Beaujolais, when we were there in November, tinged with the smoke of old vines burning as growers made way for the new crop. Even that smoky haze in the air couldn’t spoil the mellow beauty of that spectacular place. 🇫🇷🍷🍇 .

Throwback to #Carcassonne in #Languedoc, #France. We’re snowed in here in Tahoe, but we don’t mind, because the view is great and we have nowhere to be. Kind of like being walled in at this magical, medieval castle city. 🇫🇷🏰⛰🧙‍♀️👸.
