It's just so hot at the moment I only go out dog w It's just so hot at the moment I only go out dog walking before sunrise, and this morning we may have been the first to tread the very shiny new and smart canal path between La Croisade and Pigasse! Local walkers, runners and cyclists will be pleased to know that the rotten tree roots and muddy ditches are gone! Very impressed how quickly this work was completed - especially in this heat! 🙌 . #lafranglaise #livinginlanguedoc #walkingthedog #weimaranersofinstagram #weimlife #weimaraners #sunrise #canaldumidi #pigasse

The dates are 8-11 September and this year the routes will include one for non-cyclists too. You can join (for free!) for 1 or more days, so it's a great way to explore the beautiful Cahors region, have a lot of fun - AND support an incredible association!

So here's a quick one for today, because it's one of the venues I've visited lately and I'll be hosting a @sketchlanguedoc workshop here soon! If you love history too, this 13th century chateau and the outbuildings, the gardens and the views are going to be right up your street - it's amazing!

Today is a Duffy Day! On this day a few years ago Today is a Duffy Day! On this day a few years ago, this sweet, funny and very affectionate hound came into our lives after a short stay with Dog Rescue Carcassonne. I'm not sure we'll ever overcome her fears of gunshots, but she has become extremely at ease with sofas, cuddles and a healthy diet! She's wonderful with other dogs, children and people in general. Happy Gotcha Day Duff the Fluff - we love you lots! ❤️ #bleudegascogne #lafranglaise #dogrescuecarcassonne #adoptadog #fosterdog #houndsofinstagram #duffy
No two weeks are ever the same and last week I gav No two weeks are ever the same and last week I gave a presentation to the Women's International Club in Florensac 😊 It was a real pleasure to meet such a lovely group of ladies. I took along a bundle of my sketchbooks and spoke about sketching in Languedoc and finding 'the Magic of the Mundane'. It was so lovely to be invited and although 'powerpoint presentations' are not really my thing, everyone seemed to love it and the video at the end made everyone smile! #lafranglaise #annettemorrisart #sketchlanguedoc #wicm #womeninbusiness #womeninspiringwomen #womeninbusinessinfrance #sketchfrance #learnnewthings #artenoccitanie #sketchingfrance #openyoureyes #sketchwhatyousee #liveinthemoment #sketchtheeveryday #mindfulliving
Day 2 and more sketch spot scouting further afield Day 2 and more sketch spot scouting further afield and of course a visit to La Dame de Fer!

Off to Montmarte tomorrow… 😍 #annettemorrisart #sketchingfrance #sketchparis #sketchingholiday #francesketch #toureiffel #louvre #louvremuseum
