The land wears gold instead of green. We walk through October knowing it ends in the season of the dead. Everywhere an echoing back of bone omens, cardboard masks, mangle lanterns. Even the patisseries and fancy bakers of Weychester make folkloric nods in their displays of delight. – Dr. M. Benn

The massive dolmen angevin at Bagneux in Saumur (Maine-et-Loire) has 4 broad orthostats on each side, a 7m wide terminal slab and 4 capstones forming an 18x5m chamber, spacious enough to have once been used as a dance hall. Card by Dando-Berry in Loudun 1905. #TombTuesday.

Now that the day is done, I can tell you I survived yet another birthday. 70 + years, more gray than blonde. Still can't believe I made it this far. And mostly optomistic about life

I listened to Stevie Ray Vaughan's entire catalog recently. Über talented musician. Didn't know which LP to choose. His debut, Texas Flood, is very strong but In Step (his final project) is probably his overall best. And for those who want more, the beautiful SRV box set is worth every penny.
