In the meantime, your visit to this scared place is very special. I always enjoy learning about such places and your images and the summary that goes along is always so very nice. Looking forward to your next entry. Have a wonderful remainder to your week~Mary Howell Cromerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05473298562829352582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-16112444953120884012017-05-09T22:35:53.739-07:002017-05-09T22:35:53.739-07:00Maggie, that is some old history.

There are so many opportunities for you to do that in Normandy, and I eagerly read each one, often doing a little more research afterwards. <br />The Abbaye is an imposing structure, there on the hill, with an equally impressive history. I look forward to reading about your own little village the history of your presbytère.<br />Bonne semaine!Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-67590418407344695082017-05-08T09:17:33.165-07:002017-05-08T09:17:33.165-07:00And I've netted myself some birds, too ;-)And I've netted myself some birds, too ;-)Melbourne Australia Photoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00495515492384987803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-10624259107753328052017-05-08T08:54:26.119-07:002017-05-08T08:54:26.119-07:00What a beautiful and sacred spot, Maggie!

Among my favorite things are cathedrals and abbeys, especially those with years of history. We live in such a new country that people get excited when they buy a Civil War era house from the mid nineteenth century. Thank you for hosting MM and for sharing all that history with us.

I am happy and grateful that you share it so beautifully. (Can't help but think that Saint Vigor certainly deserved to receive that land ... after all, he did a good job, since the dragons never did come back, right?). Thank you, seriously, for sharing ...

I recently visited a Vikings exhibit in a museum in Denver that was on loan from Sweden and learned about the Vikings invasion of France and how Normandy became a part of their settlements.
