Larressingle, Pont d'Artigue, Santiago

Just back from a week of much-needed 30+ degrees of sunshine in south -west France.  Great food, wine and company, as well as a fig tree under which to sit, read and write.  My ongoing short story, The Dragonboy of Regnaville, is nearing completion.  Quite by chance, I came across some interesting places I must incorporate.  The Castle of Larressingle, begun in the 13th century, oozes atmosphere and not far from there, the Pont d'Artigue, on Le chemin de Saint-Jacques de Compostelle (or the Camino de Santiago de Compostela) is the perfect place for a dramatic event in Julian the dragonboy's life.
Coming soon.
