My mentee

I am a mentor to this young college senior--who is graduating next spring with a Nutrition major.  Oh, and she also happens to be the daughter of one of my favorite friends from college days! We met up this afternoon--along with her mom.  The time flew by --so much fun to see them both!

A Yearly Task

And now I have "people" to take care of this onerous task!  (That's what our kids are for, right?)                             

 

 

 

Morning Walk

Fuzzy little monster

Cable from camera to laptop--damaged by some sharp-toothed wild creature during the night, as we all slept.

The prime suspect.

A favorite lunch spot

At the Bischofshof

Regensburg--one of the oldest cities in Germany

This hat store has been here in Regensburg at least since the late 1940s, according to Dan's aunt Therese, who worked in Regensburg at that time.

Berchtesgaden

To translate: Death is certain--uncertain is the hour.  Lots of sadness in this area--a block away is a building mural to the "sons of the strong people of Berchtesgaden" who gave their lives in a number of wars--the most recent being WW2.  Hitler's Eagle's Nest is nearby.

 

Konigsee--a very long lake with very clear water, at the base of the mountains.
