What a beautiful Jeanne D'Arc! She looks truly inspired.<BR/><BR/>When I was a young Girl Guide, in Montréal, we would sing, with four voices, one starting after another: Orléans, Beaugeancy, Notre Dame de Cléry, Vendôme, Vendôme. It would produce the rings of the bells in the Towers. <BR/><BR/>Never dreamed I would see Vendôme one day. Your photos make it so real.

We do have a microclimate here in St-Aignan. It's less stormy here in the summertime than it is 25 or 30 miles south of us. And it is not as cold or rainy here as it is in Blois, 25 miles north. But it's sometimes hard to tell the difference. After five years here, we are still learning.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-23273934776984952502008-07-09T16:40:00.000+02:002008-07-09T16:40:00.000+02:00but you have your own micro climate? different fro...but you have your own micro climate? different from the surrounding ones?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
