• As Promised here is a start on the pictures.

  
  

   

  
  

  This is a picture of Burgbernheim where we currently live.  I wish I could get it to come clearer and with better detail but I’m still new at this.  This was taken in May and the blooming yellow fields you see way off in the distance is Flax.  This is the back of the biggest church in town so it’s not the prettiest side but I wanted you to see out across town.

  
  

   

  
  

  This is the same view as before only from higher on the hill.  It rained on us this day so the haze you see isn’t smog or fog, it was just really overcast.  I’m always amazed at how lush and green it is here.  We live in a most excellent, beautiful country.

  
  

  This is the view of the front of the church and gate house from our kitchen window.  We live on the third floor, what’s called under the roof.  In Germany and I think other European countries as well we live on the second floor.  They count it this way.  Ground floor, First floor. Second floor and so on.  And of course we just say 1st, 2nd, 3rd.  I have already started thinking that way so I’ll probably confuse myself when I get back stateside.  By the way notice all the lovely red tile roofs and half timber construction.

  
  

  Yes, an even closer view.  It’s probably one of my favorite building in this little town.

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

  This is my new profile pic in case you didn’t notice the change.  This is almost to Austria.  Part of the foothills of the Alps.  Anyone that comes over here…..well this is definetly one of the places I would take them.  Until you see it with your own eyes you can’t imagine how breathtaking it truly is.

  
  

  Anyone up for a challenge?

  
  

  To reflect my new status as an expatriate living in Bavaria I would like to re-design my page.  Unfortunately I don’t have the necessary skills.  So if you think you are up for the challenge submit your design ideas.  If your chosen I will send you an authentic Bavarian souvenir of your very own.  And I don’t mean some cheap $2.00 key chain, unless of course that’s what you want.  Your design will need to include indigolady somewhere and the colors should reflect a Bavarian theme.  Any other questions just leave a comment and I’ll get back to you.  And please spread the word, you might not have the necessary computer skills either, but someone you know might.  And if they say you sent them and they get the winning design….well hell….I’ll send you the key chain.
