Making hay while the sun shines

After almost a month of wild storms and torrential showers, the sun finally came out on Sunday. Everyone as been busy clearing ronces et orties (brambles and nettles), trimming lawns and clearing out weeds. My garden was a veritable jungle. On the way to dinner with friends tonight, I stopped to snap this shot outside Rignac. The farmers have literally been making hay while the sun shines.
