Soumont

Approaching Lodeve, I passed the hamlet of Soumont. I took a rest on a nearby hill. Bushfires can be devasting in the garrigue-area and as this was a spot for a a fire lookout, and I met a fire man on duty with his binoculars.

It was very hot and humid. Next night had a heavy thunderstorm and torrential rain. Temperture had dropped to a "frosty" 18C, when I continued.
