Normandy Countryside





Every day we were in Argentan, Normandy, Michelle and I would go on long walks or bike rides. We would explore for hours, drinking in the clear air and the breathtaking scenery.



So picturesque, so peaceful-- the sleepy little towns, the tiny patient chapels, the solitary gardener carefully grooming her shrubs.


There were sheep with new lambs quietly grazing behind trimmed hedges and tiny gates, sweet-scented fields and quaint hidden lanes, ivy-covered and brim-full of loveliness.











I wanted to stay there forever. . .to live always in this peaceful realm of Old World romance.
