Here are the last 3 online albums from our vacation (I recommend you to used the slideshow tool btw) :)
1. Sheep from Ouessant
From the moment we tried to find Ouessant sheep farmers on the internet (back in May) to the final meeting with the selected farmer (2 weeks ago), we learnt a LOT about these lil sheep! I think we now know almost enough to turn ourselves into sheep farmers, if we want one day!

2. Breton Sunset
These are not the most interesting photos, but every evening, I just couldn't stop admiring these beauties from the sky!

3. Our work on the hobbit house
these are the most frustrating photos. I think we've worked so much everyday that we forgot to take pics really! How frustrating!
Here you will see some part only of our work: we got our new doors and shutters, (which means lot of patience, cement, concrete, sandpaper, blue painting, white spirit, etc)
HUGE work (surtout le ponçage)which took a lot of time.
We've also finished all the renovation of the walls in the living room, with lime (pierres apparentes et joints à la chaux).
We've started to build an outside wall, with stones, for the terrasse (which is still a mess for the moment), and worked on the rain waters exhaust system. We've also varnished (to protect them from insects and give light to their original colour) all the wood lintels (les linteaux, les poutres en bois au dessus des portes, des fenêtres)
Well, we've done a lot, and all the official works to get connected to the mains (tout à l'égoût) should start in a month or so. THAT will also be a main change.
The problem (cough cough), is that we're running out of money for the works in the hobbit house! That's another problem, but I have confidence in lottery :P
