                      5 years ago.  Trip for Feast of the  Ascension.  Also a visit to

                      Sully-sur- Loire Chateau.

                     Took part in the service by reading a passage from John

                     Henry Newman.  Breathtaking.  Wonderful Benedictine

                     hospitality.

I like the top middle one as it makes it look HOT- and it was 29 degrees!

I wanted a crazy angle, but had to retreat into a cedar tree, as painting

en plein air yesterday was very hot and I didn’t want to get sunstroke!
