  1. It is a shame the church is hidden behind the trees, but I do love that iron fence.
    …..and how about that wooden sidewalk?

    • Wooden sidewalks are one of my favourite things to find in postcards.
      For us it is a shame that the church is hidden but it must have been wonderful for the parishioners – especially since it would have protected them from the fierce snowstorms that whip through rural Quebec!
