Sounds like a Motown group, doesn’t it?

After my long drive yesterday, I wanted an easier day, so I made a short loop around to Beames de Venise, up through the Dentelles de Montmirail mountains to the sweet little hilltop village of Suzette, down again to Malaucene and back home to Bedoin.

Including the time I spent sitting on a cafe patio in Suzette enjoying the view and the time I spent not enjoying a virtually inedible lunch in Malaucene, the whole trip took less than 4 hours.

The name Dentelles is supposed to refer to the lacy look of the mountains, but I always see them as crooked teeth, even more so after seeing them from different angles today.

Afterward, I replenished wine and snack supplies for an evening at home, and settled in to do a little laundry and finish my book. (Room, by Emma Donoghue, amazing!)
