It was odd, catching up on Lawyers’ Weeklys, etc. as we both did some work yesterday. Feels, at the moment anyway, like someone else’s life, although once I began working, it didn’t take a second to become focused, once again.<\/p>\n
As I mentioned last week, it’s a national holiday,\u00a0lundi de la P\u00e2que\u00a0<\/em>(Easter Monday),\u00a0\u00a0here today so it will be interesting to see what is actually open and closed. What is open is our local Boulanger Madame but I am told that the local administrative centres (the “Mairie”) regulate who can and can’t open on stat holidays. Can’t have the French\u00a0sans leur pain<\/em>.<\/p>\n I switched Graham to today so we continued work on the painting, trying to achieve the right values and hues although there was a clear loss of some perspective last week when I painted in some detail. You can see it on the second row of windows. Have to fix.<\/p>\n A beautiful day here, although I see the Jays lost yesterday, so we went for another walk, this time to and through\u00a0\u00cele St.-Louis, where Amie and Gerry married some years ago. See photos for itinerary.<\/p>\n Had a lovely dinner with Kirby and Marco at Le Gorille Blanc (again).<\/p>\n\n\t\t
