That door. The staircase. The baptismal font. Do such things hold memory? I wonder.<br /><br />I'm so glad you took us along on your walk. I'd love to visit in person one day. <br /><br />Enjoy the potager! I hope the weather cooperates.Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-19002466909665325442013-04-15T17:25:39.201-07:002013-04-15T17:25:39.201-07:00Breathtaking!

Your garden will be great!<br /><br />I have two questions -- how do you pronounce potager -- pot-a-gzher with the accent on the last syllable or pot-e-gzhay -- Rick is planting one and I want to get it right!<br /><br />And how far is that church from the beaches. I could almost swear I was there. It was an Eglise Notre Dame near there -- the front of the building and door handle looked very much like pix I took. A cemetery outside. And that covers about every church in France! When I was there they had a large sign about how it was reconstructed by (I think) American GIs after the war. I hope it was the same. Either way you have brought back a lovely memory.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-1938095511429524182013-04-14T10:37:25.077-07:002013-04-14T10:37:25.077-07:00Wow, we love visiting old Churches this one is won...Wow, we love visiting old Churches this one is wonderful, thank you for sharing your photographs.

I do hope that it is warmer in England than it is here right now. Were we to plant anything now, it would freeze.
