laficion Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 It's that time of the year again and spring is just around the corner but here in the south of France, it's already been a few weeks that spring has arrived. My wife's cousin from Belgium came down for a week to rest up and soak in some sun to charge up the batteries , which gave everyone the opportunity to get together for some BBQ-ing and tasting some 2010 wines from my small town village of Calvisson but also, the occasion for our cigar club members to join in with some great smokes and interesting & heated conversations. The cousin stoped smoking ciggies 20 years ago but was however tempted to take a few puffs from my cigar. LOL LOL. Now that the weather is getting better, How are FOH'ers planing to celebrate the coming of spring, outings, walks with the kids and family, friends,cigars ? or just spring cleaning ? If you want, give us a preview. As always, here are a few pics..
thechenman Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Very nice...it looks beautiful in the South of France. New York I'm afraid isn't quite there yet, but I'm heading back home to California with the family to get some real spring sunshine. Just relaxing, hanging with friends and family, firing up the grill and smoking a few cigars with some great libations.
peanutpete Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 love France, my better half dad lives there so we go out every year, your pictures made me miss it even more
Colt45 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Looks great Guy Weather here is still iffy, but things are finally starting to turn a little greener.
mazolaman Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I know this is hard to believe,but England is in the middle of a mini heatwave! We've had afew days of 23degree heat,which is very unseasonal. So,the barbie's been on,with some good Beef rib on it,and we've all turned that perculiarly English lobster red..... People are smiling again. Royal wedding next week,so it'll piss down then....
El Presidente Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Fantastic Guy! coming into Autumn down here. Gorgeous days and the wet summer finally appears behing us. We BBQ/eat outdoors all year round

Cohiba Stevie Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Ah the south of france... My most favourite place in the world, my parents have a caravan in a little town called la londe, just outside toulon, about 2 hours from nice. Really is an amazing place. I hope to return to nice for a little city break in the summer.
mbrody Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Fantastic pics Guy. They just ooze cameraderie and a wonderful time. Hope to visit France some day!

We love the Pyrenees,and have great memories of a village called Cotignac in Provence. Your pics bring back happy memories,Guy.
Habanos2000 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Guy, you define "joie de vivre"! I too am looking forward to warmer, dryer, days and having friends and family together for a BBQ, wine and cigars! Ahhhhh.......
