Guests for dinner. How delightful. Come. Sit. Eat.
Set in the French style, the dining table at Felix Valle House State Historic Site is ready for guests. Located in Ste. Genevieve presents house, trading post, and grounds as they would have appeared in the early 19th century. Charming to see that clear glass, blue & white china, and a white tablecloth never go out of style.
Fair or foul weather, this is a delightful stop for a little history lesson made interesting. Can you imagine voices in the mercantile discussing the quality of the fur brought to trade for an iron kettle? Or the joy when a letter from a New Orleans acquaintance arrives?
Keep a careful watch on the river. Spring floods can damage the crops in the “great field”. Live is not all work — a lively religious and social life filled the days of this thriving settlement. Did you know — at one time, Ste. Genevieve was larger than St. Louis?
Parks and historic sites — photograph them all in all seasons — quite an assignment. But fictional photographer Serena Carter is up to the task in the sweet romance “Morning Tryst.”
Countdown: six days to the June 20 release.
