The rain just north of Spain falls mainly in France

October 21st Wednesday

The throughout the early morning, an unrelenting rain hovered over Argeles. The sound against the roof was like nails falling on stone. By sun up, the rain had softened somewhat, but it remained unseasonably cool and wet for most of the day. Consequently we stayed in until late afternoon. I worked on my french and read a book about the colonial American Navy. After lunch we walked out into the village to see the flea market and check for mushrooms in the garden. The Wednesday flea market was spare. Most people stayed home. The yield from the garden mushroom patch was also unremarkable. We found 2 coulemelles again but they were over ripe. We buried them in a leaf pile next to the main patch and went home. We took no pictures today so I added a picture of the market on a sunny day for reference.
