Screaming Gargoyle


Sorry this is so far after the fact, but I had an unexpected emergency extraction of all four of my wisdom teeth, two of which were impacted. Not exactly fun times, and I wasn't quite capable of getting a photo up here. I was also incapable of taking photos, so you're getting another old one for today.

This gargoyle graces the courtyard of one of the chateaux in the Loire Valley, which contains over 300 such castles. We saw several in a matter of days on my trip, so forgive me if I'm not one hundred percent certain which one this was from! I'm pretty sure it's Chambord, as I believe that was the first we went to, but either way, they all have a certain similarity. The expression on this mossy-backed fellow's face is about how I feel now the Vicodin's wearing off...
