The Twist
I’ve shared this song with you before, but it has been six years and warrants another listen. Easter songs are full of joy. On Good Friday there’s a different feel. We know today that joy is indeed on the way, but it is still a somber occasion. So many of the lines from this song […]
Follow The Instructions
I had another post planned for today, but decided to go with this one instead, borrowed from a friend’s Facebook page. I’d had a hard day with multiple IT issues (some still unresolved) and I needed the chuckle.
Would You Fall For This?
It was in my email spam folder, a note from the chairman of one of the world’s biggest philanthropic organizations. I should count myself lucky – I had been chosen to receive $5,300,000. I didn’t click on the link. It seemed strange that I would never have heard of such a prestigious organization, so I […]
Another View
Friends dropped by Monday evening and we weren’t home. So they went for a walk in the hills around Sulzburg, sending pictures as they did. I found it interesting to see what scenes they thought were worthy of preservation. We live in a beautiful area – and sometimes it takes another person’s eyes to remind […]
Monday Rolls Around Again
A busy weekend has left me with no time to finish the post I had intended for today. Rather than skip posting, I thought you might like to see this – it’s been four years since I first shared it. This image came to mind as the past couple of evenings I have been out […]
What Village Is That?
Today is Palm Sunday. Seems like a good time for some church pictures. “What village is that” is a fairly common question my wife of I will ask as we walk though our area of Germany. So many little places in the distance, and in four years there are still a few we haven’t explored. […]
It’s The Weekend!
Just a few smiles/chuckles to start your Saturday. Which of these four resonated most with you? I must admit I loved the third one – I have no patience with impatient people.
Sweet Stuff
I’m more of a salty snacks person, but even though I wouldn’t want to eat these treats I noticed in a Freiburg café window, I certainly can appreciate the artistry. Which one would you choose? Or would you want to eat them all?
A Year Later
One year ago today I shared these words and pictures. So much has happened (and not happened) since then I’m not sure where to begin. In 2020 I was saying life still goes on. Yet, I just realized that the Easter bunny was not in the Sulzburg town square this year – unless they put […]
Not Your Ordinary Denial
Of course they believe in climate change – most of them anyway. They aren’t stupid. But they are upset. They decided to make a point. Last weekend, delegates to the Conservative Party of Canada policy convention defeated a motion that acknowledged climate change as real. It was embarrassing for leader Erin O’Toole, who has been […]
