Another Dordogne Valley castle, this time Montfort. French Wikipedia has an extensive timeline of historical information if you're interested (there's also a link to a summary in English). Apparently, the castle was fought over a lot, destroyed and rebuilt at least four times in its history.
Le château de Monfort, Dordogne.
Today is the autumnal equinox, the beginning of fall for those who prefer the astronomical way of defining the seasons. From now until next spring, each day will bring more darkness than daylight.
I don’t think I’m ready for more darkness. But I suppose at least we don’t have the freezes that can come with it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Equinox everyone- next stop the Solstice.
ReplyDeleteIt's dreary and kind of dark here this morning, because it's drizzling... 8 am, and it looks like 6 am.
ReplyDeleteI for one will be glad for less sunlight.
ReplyDeletemitch, the farther north you go, the more darkness there is.
ReplyDeleteevelyn, Yay!
judy, drizzle can wear you down, but not like wind.
michael, and the heat that goes with it...
