I would enjoy seeing this some day ...

 https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=mont+saint+michel+abbey&qpvt=mont+saint+michel+abbey&form=IARRSM&first=1&tsc=ImageBasicHover

There si a bed & breakfast in northeastern France that has a guy who has a wargame room.  He and his wife cater to others, but they encourage wargamers to show up, visit historical sites, and ... play wargames in the wargame room.  Perhaps some day I can add a visit to this abbey wiht such a trip.

Didn't know where else to stick this, but I am constantly looking at properties out west. Most of the time end up drooling over homes I can't afford.

I don't typically care about the home itself, but the views it has.

So I saw this and was just stunned. Imagine working in your garage or something and this is the view when you step outside:



Some people have all the luck.
