rounding up VG

 had a good roundup of givens and it is time to consolidate the results of various strands of research during the summer...



We had quite a runaround during the summer – after visiting (courtoisie) the van Gogh hoses in the Borinage in the spring, we tried to adhere to his own agenda in the 'lost year' 1880 to figure out where he all went – Korsele, one of the more interesting ones because hardly mentioned until recently... but also Courcelles, a strange about-face just before his goal... and how he might have traveled - trains being more widely available than today... icing on the cake was a languid trip to Auver-sur-Oise, and then back again via various stations along the river to it's source in Belgium...

yes we took our time this time...
