18 - 29 November - Montreux

We returned from Kathmandu late the night of 17 November. The next morning I couldn't believe my eyes! Back in paradise! The colors had really popped Fall foliage Morning of 18th the light was brilliant as I headed to catch my flight to Toulouse for OGC meetings
Cotoneaster fruit More red berries Fall in Montreux Fall in Montreux Fall in Montreux
I returned a few days later and, back in our kitchen, I could prepare and eat my favorite dishes, like this Sicilian eggplant casserole With our Sicilian eggplant casserole we continued to eat from the garden (Nov 24) Squash and fish (Nov 25) Dramatic clouds over the Alps Mums by the lake
Mums and Le Grammont Meanwhile more clean-up of beds at the garden And even transplanted lettuce in hopes of an early spring harvest Accessing our fleet of Matchbox cars for possible transport to the new world Notices of upcoming concerts (which we do not attend)
Another concert in the Chateau du Chatelard Yet more music in La Tour and Villeneuve Different styles of music in La Tour Finally, a mini-presentation on water colors at a meeting of an association to which Greg belongs, but to which he did not receive an invitation Weather clearing
