Thanks Alandra for your fascinating comment! You're not alone in seeing a connection between the Haute-Vienne and Devon: lots of English people I know say that the Limousin reminds them of Devon! Have you been back to England recently?

very pretty scene, --seeing this mill brings back memories of childhood in England, - used to walk past a mill (Woodmill) enroute to my maternal grandmother's house. There was a hole in the gate beyond the mill, and it was hard to pass by without looking thru the hole, to see the water swirling and churning below, a bit awesome/scarey to a child also. Some of my ancestors in Devon were millers.
