out of office reply

Digital relief of the Alps; France, Italy, Swi...Image via WikipediaWhen preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money. ~Susan Heller ( stolen seen at this wonderful blog)

I will be gone as of tomorrow for twelve days for a total French immersion. More precisely to the mighty Alps where we ski in the winter, I will see the ground this time, the majestic mountains, sheep and flowers. I will be breathing the wonderful Alpine air and I will get to see "my" tree again!!

    Ah you make me jalous I love mountains so much. This year at the Garda Lake I tried to go into the mountains,(carrying a lazy Mr. Gattino behind me) the highest one there is 1800 m and is called Monte Baldo. I saw such beautiful places I had never seen before !

    I can't wait to see what treasures you bring back from this trip. You never fail to amaze and delight.

    Hope you'll be able to share an animal-themed photo for the latest Thematic Photographic. I promise I'll keep the nutty themes coming if you promise to keep taking pictures and sharing them online. Deal?
