A Spire with a Twist

Legend has it that the devil himself twisted the spire of St Clemens in Mayen. I’m not sure if that’s true but it’s a much more compelling story than that it was simply caused by a mistake of the carpenters.

Since the devil’s ire came from being fooled into helping to build the church – he’d been told that the people of Mayen were building an inn with a ballroom rather than a church – here are a few twisted vines.

Wine time

76 lines

It may be the first Sunday of Advent but I am not quite ready to let go of autumn.  Lines.  Rows and rows of growing wine – Riesling, Grauburgunder, Gewürztraminer, Merlot, Shiraz … I love them all.   PS: Today’s Oxford Dicitionary’s Word of the Day is bibulous, aka: excessively fond of alcoholic beverages 😉

For One Word Sunday: lines.   More lineage can be found here.
