11 October 2008
Very misty morning initially here in eastern Touraine, we might almost have been in Chavignol! Sun now burning off the mist. The forecast is for a fine day with temperatures ring into the low 20s C. Conditions should be good for anyone picking over the weekend.
Some further pics from the 2008 harvest:
