A great day out

What better way to spend a February Saturday than truffle hunting and a great truffle lunch near Monieux below the slopes of Mont Ventoux with a group of friends. Lovely views in the distance of the snow covered mountain slopes.
Arriving at the farmhouse we gear up with our walking boots then off down the steeply sloping hillside with the farmer and his truffle dog.
Digging madly wherever he scented the truffles, the dog called Velo quickly unearthed some great speciments.
Then back to the farmhouse for a lunch to remember.
