Today just a few photos left over from yesterday’s post about Thursday’s event. I think my favorite is the people walking through the vineyard single file. By that point I had separated from the group.
When the group leader turned left at Sulzburg City Hall I knew it would be a longer than necessary walk. To get to St. Ilgen a right turn was required, at least if you wanted a direct route. Marching through the forest meant that my wife, who took the vineyard route, managed to be waiting […]
In Canada when there is a holiday approaching everyone knows it. Every store has a sign in the front door giving their holiday hours. Whether it is closing early Christmas eve, or just for the morning on November 11 to commemorate Remembrance Day, they want their customers to be informed well in advance, so they […]
Apparently I was wrong yesterday – today’s post isn’t longer. I do admire people with a sense of humour though. If I had seen this sign I would have thought it was a warning that knives, forks and cups were not permitted. I guess that means you would have to eat with your hands, but […]
Does it ever seem like there aren’t enough minutes in an hour to get everything done? Or days in the week? Or computers that cooperate? I promise (or at least I am hoping) to post something longer for tomorrow, but until then some humour to brighten your day. At least, I thought it was funny, […]
This portrait is in the municipal museum in Lippstadt, Germany. I keep meaning to share some of their collection with you and then get distracted and it doesn’t happen. Last night though I was going through some old photos and came across this one of one of my wife’s ancestors. Back in the 18th century […]
I realized yesterday when I republished my post on The Atomium that I hadn’t shown the view from inside the structure. I remember in 2014 thinking I should do that, and thinking also it didn’t make much sense because I didn’t know what any of the buildings in the pictures were. That’s because I rarely […]
Today seems like a good day for revisiting an older post. For some reason, when this was first published in 2014, I only included one picture with the post. I have no idea what I was thinking of – but I was new at this blogging thing and I’ve always been more of a words […]
Was walking into the vineyards at the edge of Sulzburg and saw this. The pictures really don’t do it justice.
Three days of sunshine and the vendors at the Pentecost craft market in Sulzburg were, I imagine, quite pleased. Crowds were indeed even more numerous on Saturday and Sunday. It looked to me like a lot of things were being sold, though I admit I only paid attention to the food. Yes, I did get […]
