Yes. Our château. Ok, not really, but we think of it as ours since it's right next door*. From this perspective you can see both the remnants of the medieval castle (left) and the renaissance wing (right).
The building at street level with the green storefront is the St.-Aignan tourist office. Again, this photo is taken from the Place du 14 Juillet.
*It's not literally right next door. We're about 3 kilometers from town.

I just checked your weather gage : 17 C (63 F) at 3.15 pm. Spring is here and I am so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteHave you changed your clocks yet?
Wow! You live in an amazing place. :)
ReplyDeleteUm, OK... I thought that was your chateau and the place getting the new stairs is the country house.
ReplyDeleteIs that "right next door", 3km in Loire parlance...?
ReplyDeleteI just noticed that you posted the poem "Spring has sprung..."
ReplyDeleteThat is too funny. My grandmother(born 1895)used to recite that to me.
Diogenes, do I read your nice comments on Joe Jervis blog?
