Spring, finally!
Spring is here! Finally, after the cold of February and last week “monsoons”, the sun is shining, air is mild and fragrance of flowers spreads everywhere: mimosas which survived the Women’s Day, broom, viburnum and almond trees. 
This year we hosted about 40 forty hives that have left the pasture under the Monviso to come and spend the winter in Liguria. The continuing work of the small workers on the surrounding blooms – a particular favorite is the blue flower of borage – shows that in spite of man’s activities, our environment is healthy.
I wonder if the honey will remember the lavender or the salty sea air? Come and discover yourself, being our guests in a week end of spring.
Rain, rain, rain and …
.. I’m sick too. Damn, how fast I got flu!
It’s unusual here when rain falls for 4 days in a row. I can’t remember when was last time I saw all that rain. Fortunately is light rain, not heavy but it soaks and you don’t notice.
Well, in the meantime yesterday carpenters were back at work, although with week end, illnesses and holidays (today is holiday in Italy), it seems to me that renovation has slowed down.
Marta, she loves sailing boats, said this year’s Winter Regatta wasn’t particularly lucky, as the weather has been really inclement. Someone else waiting for a different beginning of December!
