Oh Ellen you get 5 gold stars for your photos. I loved all the embroideries, caskets and cabinets. LOVE the Unicorn and lions and the old writing stitched on the tapestries. I was told that in August most Europeans go on vacation or holiday as they say. Gezz and all the beauties looking at you thru the windows - so not fair.

Loved all the tapestry photos - some of them would be great inspiration for hooked rugs except that creepy character from the Garden of Love crawling up that womans hair or whatever it was doing - Shudder - that gave me the creeps. Lovely scenery along the Rhine. WOW - you are sure going to be busy teaching this fall. How nice you got a teaching assignment down under next year.
