Always

The church service at St. Cyriak, just a minute’s walk from our apartment, is at 10 on Sunday mornings. I gather it has been for centuries. But 10 a.m. isn’t when it starts. St. Cyriak is part of a multiple point pastoral charge, including churches in Laufen and St. Ilgen. There used to be a […]

Local Entertainment

I figured the timing was perfect. There were people coming over to our place for the evening, so I could drop by Sulzburg’s market square, take some pictures and go home. No need to subject myself to the music.   The thought of an accordion band did not appeal to me. It reminded me of the […]

Road Safety

They’ve been doing some road work on the main street in Sulzburg. I have no idea why – it didn’t look to me like anything needed to be done. Not being a homeowner I pretty much ignored it. Not my taxes, at least not directly. I paid a little closer attention though when my bus […]

Lost in Translation

As an anglophone struggling to survive in Germany, Google Translate is my best friend. I carry it with me everywhere on my phone and consult it frequently. I know though that it cannot always be trusted. My daughter was visiting, and I took her to the local mini-golf course, the one no-one except me ever […]

Looks Can Be Deceiving

Yesterday afternoon I was walking from Heitersheim to Sulzburg, and noting how quickly the corn is growing. It looks like it will be ready for harvest soon. As someone who loves to eat fresh corn on the cob it was a frustrating experience. I know that this corn is not meant for human consumption. Unlike […]

Bellying Up To The Bar

I’m sure the horse is underage – but that probably isn’t a big deal in Germany.    

More Fleas

Another Flohmarkt (flea market) is being held today in Sulzburg. As I post this, it has about five hours left to run.  We just had one about a month ago, and I have a story to tell from that one, I think on Monday.  It’s not something I have been putting off but rather something […]

Another Black Forest Walk

Sunday afternoon we took a walk through the forest outside Sulzburg in the direction of Bad Sulzburg. At one point there was a ramp down into the stream which runs alongside the path. I should know the name of the stream. It is the same one that runs past our apartment and through the village. […]

The June Pole

The tree in Sulzburg’s market square has been the subject of several previous posts here, and I really thought I was done with it as May came to an end. Back in December it was a Christmas tree; quite nice to look when we would return home after dark. At some point early in the […]

The Church Crawl – II

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.
