I posted a photo of the village hall (la mairie) in Mareuil a few days ago.
On Sunday I took a couple of closeups (above) showing the village's war memorial
(le monument aux morts) so that you can read about what happened in Mareuil in August 1944.
You can see a full view of the mairie by clicking this link.

Looking at these photos, you might notice that all the overhead wires
in Mareuil have been undergrounded since I took this photo in 2005.

This village is typical French. Nice photos.
ReplyDeleteIn such a small village, Émile Barbier was certainly related to your former hair dresser.
The Barbiers are a local clan, along with the Marteaus, Bigots, etc.
DeleteThat looks like a nice town.
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice town, but pretty quiet.
DeleteThis grape harvest photo is one of my favorites of all your photos.

DeleteThe money plant is doing great.
The money plant is no relative to Lunaria aka money du pape when dry.
DeleteIt's really an Asian money plant. I thought it would enjoy being in your life. :-)
DeleteCHM, the plant Evelyn brought me from Alabama is a Chinese money plant, Pilea peperomioides. It's still small but it's looking good and growing.
