Oh my goodness...that is a dream of a picture Keith!! Gosh 1053, absolutely amazing! The poppies in the foreground make it even more of a stunning picture. Love those clouds bubbling over the horizon.

Die kleine Kirche auf dem Hügel ist bereits ein wunderschönes Motiv. Aber mit der Mohnwiese im Vordergrund ist es ein richtiges Highlight! Schön komponiert, Keith!

WOW WOW WOW! Keith, this is crazy amazing!!! It hardly looks real! How happy you must have been to find this incredible view. Way to go...this is a gallery-worthy winner of a picture!

Thanks for your comments! It's been a crazy and fun trip thus far...I've had to give up on trying to post regularly or even checking in but for occasionally. Life is good though, we're having a super time! And though the truck's transmission is going to cost a palatial sum ($6k us) to repair, the engine will then be purring like a kitten and the life should be another 750,000 miles on this truck. We were told by our extremely knowledgeable mechanic that our truck has things that wear out. It's just something you fix as you go and in the end, the value makes this truck a bargain in the long run. It should last us all the years we travel so it's not a biggie in my mind. Plus, we'll have the peace of mind for longer trips down the road!

Our mechanic had work lined up for his guys for the next couple of weeks but because we're on the road he's put us in front of other jobs and we'll be ready to go in about a week. Gosh, we'll have to stay here...at this gorgeous park...full of hiking and biking and picture ops everywhere...whatever shall we do? And the price is right as well, a mere $30/night. We really are very blessed from start to finish and we couldn't be happier!

BTW I didn't know you were a vegetarian! Way to go! I like non veggie stuff too much but certainly admire your lifestyle! :)

Must go, you're in my thoughts! *big hugs*

That is superb with the cloudy sky, the different greens, the poppies and of course, the church. It looks so at home in the landscape and no wonder. 1053 ! William the Conqueror hadn't even arrived.

Thanks to you all for your kind comments and stars. To be honest it's almost impossible to get a rubbish shot of this gorgeous little church.

It looks even better surrounded by oilseed rape: www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/19687983/in/album/385223
