Please don’t post random photos that you find online.
This week I’m posting a photo a friend took on a recent trip to upper New York State. Here’s what he said about this photo:
In 1874 the French artist Claude Monet was born in Paris France. He is the most famous impressionist artist in history.
The Mirabeau Inn & Spa at Skaneateles NY. was built to replicate a French Chateau outside of Paris France. The center
piece of this French Chateau in America is a Monet styled garden, designed in a scaled down version of the Monet garden
in Paris France.

That is lovely. I’d love to see the Monet Garden in France. There’s a French connection on my pictres too My Snapshots are at http://chriscross-thebooktrunk.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/parisian-pictures-take-two.html
It would be amazing to see the garden in person, wouldn’t it? I enjoyed your Saturday Snapshot!
