Femme Osage, St. Charles County

The little town of Femme Osage, really no more than a handful of buildings, has the perfect setting along a creek.Across a bridge is a small church, surrounded by trees. A general store, at least at one point, sits along the road.It is surprising how close the houses sit to the road, reflecting a time when travel was by less noisy means than cars.

    Interesting - I just did a Google "Drive-by" view of the town. Just across the street from the General Store (3rd photo), is some kind of house that is blurred out. Wonder why?
    I think your 4th view is of the B&B there - true?
    Incidentally, you do a great job bringing small views of the area to us - Thanks!
