Week 4

Karine shared that the snail book and visit made the city paper. So love this experience and will investigate the Monserrat mountain stones for the next book~should take the snail more than seven days to explore!

We can walk for 5 or 10 minutes and easily be right on a trail to the base of Monserrat. The face and view changes, but is always fascinating. Two of the group have hiked to base 3 hrs. I've gone an hour, but turned around...by myself & it's usually 4:30. On the way this time I built a nest, while Geoff set up his studio. We plan to go farther together before we leave. 


Karine and her boyfriend Harry are the chefs every night but Sunday. I thought it was each of us taking turns, but they don't mind if we want to volunteer! Gemma made an amazing chicken dish with sriracha sauce and honey. Roya from Iran shared her plum chicken and tonight Geoff and I made a southern dinner with fried chicken, green beans, Mac & cheese, cole slaw and biscuits~so fun and well received!

El Bruc pool is open! Each of these rock forms have a name~little chair, parrot...we will miss this town, 
our residency friends and the experience. Would totally do again somewhere and here!
