The best adventures are those that contain surprises. There are wonders to be discovered by getting lost in the Highlands of Scotland or on the back roads of New England. There may just be a chance to meet a special character who changes your life. In ancient times these were sometimes known as angels.
WELCOME

Normandy Winery, France
We had stopped for some "tasting" at a small winery in Normandy near Omaha Beach. It was a lovely chateau being renovated and restored. It has wonderful bones and I would hope to see the final product someday. The kids with us got to look over some souvenirs from the Invasion including various weapons while the adults sampled some product. I, on the other hand, went out along the old wall of the chateau and found this plant (resembles a "Red Hot Poker" plant in our mountains) with the old wall in the rear. It is a wonderful mini-memory for me.
