At the end of September, I was invited to Saint-Livrade-sur-Lot, in the Lot-et-Garonne, for the comic strip festival organized each year. The authors were accommodated in lodges in the region. A pontoon plunging into the Lot extended the garden of my temporary home. From the small bench installed above the water, I could spend a few days enjoying the calm of the evening while observing the moving reflections of the river.
