Thank you SO MUCH to each and every one of you. Something very, very magical is happening in this community! Today I even discovered that if we grow by 50 more patrons, we'll be in the top 1000 Patreon accounts in the world! And for someone with 'only' 69,000 subscribers on YouTube, that's absolutely extraordinary. This truly is a fairytale for Lalande and for all of us who live here and I can't thank you enough.

This target's downloadable gift is a one hour audio recording of the thunderstorm that we experienced here a few days ago (Michael made a little video of it on his YouTube channel, 'Doing it Ourselves'). The thunder didn't stop for hours, it was amazing! I hope that you enjoy this as much as I do, I find it strangely relaxing - it makes me feel warm and snug in my bed, as I imagine a storm raging outside!

Lots of love to you all from everyone at the chateau xxxxxxx

Thank you so much Stephanie! It’s so surprising to hear that France experiences so much rain and storms, in Sunmer! Sounds exactly like us here down under in tropical Queensland, Australia.

Oh my! I adore thunderstorms and great shows of lightning (as long as they don't hit too close to home, you know? ha) and I can just imagine you sitting all cozy with a cup of tea while a great show from Mother Nature is being put on just for you! :) Teresa

Couldn’t agree more ....it really hit home to me last Friday on the most magical live chat. Culminating in the wonderful spectacle of the community needing to see mummy hear the news....community occurs round common interests and I would like to think this community shares the dream of life love and laughter. In a world of fear you bring joy. In a world of negativity you all bring sunshine. You and your mum exude living life with a smile in your hearts and that is a precious present we can all enjoy at the moment.

Congratulations Stephanie! It’s so exciting to see projects coming to their peak. I can’t wait for the world to get back to normal so I can do a work away with you. I have so many ideas for you as that is something I’m really good at. I have been involved in the creative aspects of fundraising and bringing awareness to important places and issues. Hope to see you soon!

You are curating quite a collection of soundtracks from Chateau de Lalande! There is nothing more soothing than listening to the sounds of a downpour and thunder from the comfort of home. And now we can envision we are enjoying this from the comfort of the chateau. Thank you for sharing!

Wonderful accomplishment! Enjoy the ride!

How exciting, congratulations Stephanie. So looking forward to the Fortuny vlogs. You are giving so many people so much pleasure and you deserve all this success. La lande is very fortunate to have such a talented, beautiful, passionate being as it's Chatelaine. Here's to the speedy achievement of the $12,000 target. xx

The thunderstorm brings back wonderful memories of living on a farm and being able to see the storm coming miles before it arrives. Thank you for the download and congratulations on the $11K + 1000 patreons!

Thank you for the listen i grew up with lots of t7nderstorms but where i live now we're lucky to get one a year!

Congratulations Stephanie! You have brought so much joy to my life during this crazy time. I am only a bottom tier patron but would love to be more - would there be a chance you could do a $10 tier? I love listening to you talk so passionately about the things around you. As an Australian, from a country with such a young history, I am drawn to the European stories with the many, many hundreds of years of styles and changes ( learning the influences from Asia is also eye opening). Thank you for giving your time so happily and sharing your knowledge so willingly. I have even started looking for Spode online!!! Again, thank you Stephanie. What a great sound, I just listened to the whole thing. Thank you

Oh my goodness the bird song about half way through. I had to stop to see it it was birds out my window as it was so strange to hear them amidst the thunder! We rarely get thunderstorms where I live, it was nice to be transported to Lalande for one.

What a great idea to record the sounds of a thunderstorm. Really relaxing to listen to. Thank you Stephanie

Hi Steph, I really think you should add 3 new tiers to the Patreon memberships. A solution for the issue you have with changing the system that is already in use is maintaining the benefits and titles for people who already signed up, but changing it for new members. I would suggest: Knight/Lady 5€, Baron 10€, Count 20€, Earl 50€, Marquees 100€ and Duke 200€. This system is much better and will give the members more options.

Another Goal Achieved! These are so well deserved Stephanie & all LaLanders. Congratulations. So exciting to be part of your LaLande Adventures and enjoy this amazing journey.

Congratulations Stephanie and Mummy! Your Vlog brings so much joy to our lives and we happily donate because we always want more🥰. We were so upset by the negative comments the other day during Micheal’s live video. Those people obviously don’t have an appreciation for fine things. Much love to you all!

OMGOODNESS you didn’t just reach $11,000 you smashed it - congratulations! Take a moment to pat yourself on the back. Your videos portray all the very best traits of behaviour, your parents did a great job. You are inspiring so much happiness and goodwill especially at this time when we all need good news. 💐🍾🥂

Wowza! I’m so happy to be a part of such a happy and positive group! I had an idea of a downloadable gift. I would guess that most of us do not live in France. Whoa is us! 😀 But we probably all share a love of food. What about a recipe, or two, of something we can make at home that is a typical French dish? An idea list of the contents of the perfect French picnic basket? An Amazon shopping list of items available so we can order a bit of France sent to our own homes? French drugstores are famous! What about a little video for us girls giving a tour of one? Just a few thoughts. Have a lovely day 🥰

Congratulations! You bring us all joy through your vlogs and you deserve to be compensated for it! I absolutely love thunderstorms. It's winter now, but during summer here in subtropical Queensland we have the most incredible storms. Some of my favourite childhood memories are the hot summer days spent at the beach followed by a calming afternoon storm to break the heat!

Can't wait to see the new fabric. I have an idea for a video, I would love to see a sample itinerary for someone coming to see La Lande and how to spend a week in the region. I absolutely love planning trips even if we can't currently travel.

Stephanie, thank you so much for the gift! I actually go to sleep with a YouTube black screen of a storm. Wonderful news for you and the gifts to Michael for the cottage and the laptop. You both and Isobel give so much more to your viewers!

oh yes dying to see the landscaping scheme! For future Sundays at the chateau- can you do one (or several on design periods represented in the chateau? thank you!

I remember me and my sister storm watching. It's lovely isn't it. That snug feeling. It must be absolutely awesome storm watching at Lalande. Especially as you have all the open space and sky to see from the chateau. Ps, I bought a toile de jouy face mask off Etsy today. It looks beautiful. Though I'm now fascinated to try and find out which story the image with the woman is. It's a blue and white one. And please do more on toile de jouy. And other old fabrics x

Such a lovely gang of all sorts of people, all so nice. You make me happy and miss my own Mum. She is 91 and totally wont slow down or stop tending her garden. I live far from her, Australia is so big. I love my dogs and walk to the beach regularly. The Pacific ocean is only 550mts from my door. A home in paradise, best climate, never to hot or cold. I do use my aircon, hot or cold as I'm to spoilt. Love to you all and now I'm a patron!!! Took me awhile to work out how to do it, silly me. Must be a dream for you all with endless help from your fans. Go forth, nothing can stop you now from continuing your resto except you being super busy

Hi Stephanie I dont know if you will read this, but I watched your video on you tubeIt was last night and was wondering if you had received my gift as you didnt open it on the show. It arrived at in your mailbox on 1st June according to the tracking records. It was from One Hundred Stars, can you check and let me know please Kx

Hi Stephanie: I have a couple of questions regarding the china patterns shown this week and one recently. There was a gift you received from someone that had a green and white pattern in it and I was wondering what it was. Also, you shared some green leaf looking plates or bowls recently and I was wondering what that patter was as well. I am a crazy dish/pattern collector and really liked both. Thanks!

Sharidan there's a bit of a saga with that beautiful green and white china. You can watch the beginning in The Chateau Diaries 111: THE LITTLE CUP THAT LIVED! episode.

Thanks Tami! I will take a look at that one!

I vote to fix the terrace, or start the formal garden. Also: a chateau could always use more garden statuary! ;)

I vote for the new target to be the laundry room or china room! And if those are too expensive and you want a more manageable target this time, maybe the midnight garden or finishing your own room (new wallpaper/wall fabric, and trim)! And CONGRATULATIONS ON $12,000!

So, @Stephanie Jarvis, says this is downloadable. Anyone know how to download it? Please and thank you.

I suggest a little playground with old-fashioned swing, see-saw, rocking horse for example. Guests with children will be grateful. A talented volunteer might even be able to do it at low cost (yes I think of Selmar) You could even have one toy here another there all over your plot, lovely little surprises.

Anonymous

That would be very nice for the visitors with children. We've hung ropes and net swings from the trees in our front yard.

Anonymous

Tami - thanks for the advice! I watched episode 111, then started searching. You were correct! It is Coalport Revelry Adam Green. I have found quite a bit of it on eBay. I also often use Replacements, Ltd. in Burlington NC (not far from my home), so I will have to give them a whirl as well. So for those out there that love dish collecting, check them out! Thanks again Tami!

I live in Colorado and we can get crazy storms here but they're very short-lived.... this reminds me of storms from my childhood home in Pennsylvania... absolutely love this.
