I've been deleting copies of old photos and 1200 was the last count! But this one taken in 2016 was rather special. A fascinating history of farming and being overcome by the British or someone and the whole community was lost.
Such a beautiful landscape and a great pov to include the church spire - It is is a shame that landscapes like this and also in the UK get lost with the rapid building to accommodate the growing population ! Frightening as one remembers the glory of the countryside and beautiful landscapes ! Sign of our times Maggie !! !
Such a beautiful photo, Maggiemae! That's The Bay of Fundy, and don't quote this as gospel, but I think that's the church that features in the epic poem, Evangeline, by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. It was from there that the French Acadians were banished from Nova Scotia, and they ended up settling in the "Cajun" country in Louisiana. It's quite poignant to visit there. A long time ago I posted a photo from there, so if I've for this right, the churches should match!
@maggiemae I only drop by now and then, so I'm glad I caught this! You'll see in my app that I covered a lot of information...the area being, Acadia, and the town, Gran Pre. Sending the people aaway was called "deportation". I love that we all have files to draw from and to share!
