Provence Poppies!!

Provence Poppies!!

 

Early afternoon before the storm blew in we drove up to Valensole to see if the lavendar was in bloom. We knew it wouldn't be, but we had wishful thoughts.

On the way there we came across a large field of poppies. 

Forget the lavender fields, they aren't in bloom… though they will be in two weeks.

But those poppies…

Chelsea and I ran all around the field.

I tripped.

She jumped around like a gazelle.

We had some good laughs.

Those puff cotton clouds gave way to an extra photogenic sky.

Happy Sunday afternoon in a poppy field.

  3. Love these photos of Chelsea dancing in the poppies. The 3rd photo looks like she is about the take off fly over the field. All beautiful!

    In the next-to-last photo, Chelsea looks as though she’s about to perform a cartwheel! Did she?

  7. How pretty! The sky and the poppies make the most beautiful color combination.
    Those little dice in your banner – are they bone? I used to have one I got at a flea market, long since lost. My mother said it was made of bone.

  8. So beautiful and full of joy! Hope to see them in person one day!
