Here's another shot of the donjon, or keep, of the Château du Grand-Pressigny taken from, well, directly below. I like images like this that accentuate the verticality of buildings, whether old castles or modern skyscrapers.
I did get some minor yard work done on Sunday, but I still have the grass cutting to do. I didn't cut grass on Sunday because we only have a two hour window in which to use power tools (like lawnmowers) that make noise on Sundays. It's between ten a.m. and noon. I wasn't ready to cut the grass yet at ten, and besides, we need gasoline.

I wasn't aware of the 2-hour window for making noise on a Sunday. What a good idea. Much better than being plagued with the drone of machines all day long, which is what we get here.

Wow...look at all of that lack of grout!
ReplyDeleteVery civilized, that two-hour window.
ReplyDeleteDo people stick to it?
jean, that's for our town. I don't know if other towns do the same.
ReplyDeletealewis, that's one way to look at it!
carolyn, yes, for the most part. People in agriculture are exempt, so the tractors and other farm (vineyard) equipment can be used.
awesome picture.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd stand there to take a photo.
