Colfosco: All’s Quiet on the Central Front

After yesterday’s twisty-turny drive through the mountains, we were both happy to have a quiet day at the chalet.

The apartment gets the sun in the morning, so I sat out for just a short time before it felt downright hot … despite the light, cool breeze. No A/C here, so we pulled some of the drapes closed and kept the balcony doors open. Kept us comfy for the rest of the morning.

Once the sun moved off the balcony, I split my time between photo processing indoors and reading outside. Although we are quite close to two fairly large towns, it’s beautifully quiet up here on the outskirts.

A light snack for dinner on the balcony tonight. And then I wrapped myself up in a fleece blanket to continue sitting out … watching the daylight dim as it began thundering in the distance. Rain began to fall around 9:00p … right on schedule. The twinkling lights of the houses in the mountain valley below us are now veiled by the steady rain. The eaves afford enough protection to continue sitting outside … which I will do until the evening chill drives me inside.Læs mere
