Bingen, Germany

Middle Rhine, Storm Clouds

A view over Bingen Germany looking to the Rhine River. What a great place to visit especially in the Fall. We were there (Germany and a few other countries in 2005 and 2006). Stayed with our friends mom, Mrs. G for a few days in Bingen before visiting other places. Wish I was there now to have a brat and a 1L beer!

Winter's not done yet





Was off from work today. And the forecast was for more snow!! So we built an igloo. This has been the 2nd snow storm in Feb. I believe.

Stitches


What a bad week Jan 23 was. First I get a speeding ticket then the next day I get whacked in the face which included a trip to the ER where 3 stitches were placed and super-human glue used to close up a second cut under my nose. Tyler said, after I ran in the house, ('cause the bleeding wasn't stopping outside as I was applying pressure) I think this is the day my dad will die - I was told later. Kind of wild walking into the ER with that bloody paper towel over my face telling the triage nurse, duhhh "I think I need some stitches." It's been about 10 days now and everything is healing well.
