Pic Galore

Spring has finally, truly arrived! Time to go out and enjoy the colors, right?
A walk in park...
... and a visit to our good old Carl Friedrich:
Can´t get enough of those colors (which is no surprise after the longest winter since 138 years):
Oh, some more pink? Even the lock goes with that!
Or do you prefer flowers with that?
Well, let´s hope they really do get edible tomatos soon here, I´d so look forward to a tomato-bread! After all their slogan is "we love food":
But so far we can but dream of that, sadly! Just like this man thankfully only dreams about this Gee Bee :-)
In the reflection you can see the boy in a man :-)
We took a different route, usually I don´t like frame houses, but this one is kinda nice, no?
Old, btw - this car belongs to a driving school:
A short rest with Fritzchen, Klarissa, Fridolin, Elfriede and Annabell:
And Ingo bought me a new bag and another book about our beautiful town! :-)
And yes, we landed just yet again in Schadt´s:
Those cherry-trees are everywhere!
Really, if digital-cameras had been available back in 1995 and 1999 on our journeys, we´d come home with tons of pics!
And there are other colors, too:
The first bbq of the year:
This morning at around 05:45:
This is the life :-)

Grace, I get up every working day at 04:50, that way I´m at work (40 km-drive one way) at 06:00-06:15, am on the way home at 2:30, gather enough hours to take one day off per month and am home at 3:15 - great especially on summerdays and when Ingo is home early, too :-)

That is an early start Iris, but if it means you have a lot more time to spend with Ingo then it's worth it. Btw I meant to say yesterday, hoe cool is that car, imagine learning to drive in that..nice!

An early start, yips. I was a night-owl as a student and leaving at 7:00 am for work was freaky. Back then ;-)
Less traffic, parking lots, sooo many advantages - and a huge privilege, too!

Yeah, that car is kinda cool, huh?
But I´d prefer my Nissan Patrol LWB I had in Perth (we sold him to Joondalup). Awww. That was a uge and very cool car!
