I Got A New Haircut, It Was Time For A Change

Dennis

When my mother was young, she did learn to cut hair but she didn´t work for a long time in this job. Anyway, my mother can still cut hairs but the hair trends changed over time which means my mother can´t cut the modern hair trends. She often did cut my hair or let me say she did cut my hair most of the time. Yesterday I asked her if she would cut my hair again and she answered “I need to go to the barber today too and you should think about a real modern haircut that I would … Continue reading I Got A New Haircut, It Was Time For A Change

I Did Order Birthday Gifts Online For My Mother

Dennis

I had still some money left over on my PayPal account and my mother will celebrate birthday on June 12. I am usually not so creative when it comes to birthday gifts but I know that my mother likes different kind of perfumes and I also know what kind of perfumes. I opened the Douglas website and found out that they allow to check out with PayPal. I did put four different perfumes in the shopping basket. The eau de toilette called Maroussia by Slava Zaitsev, the eau de parfum called Miro Soleil, Thierry Mugler Angel and Jil Sander Sun. … Continue reading I Did Order Birthday Gifts Online For My Mother

Uncle´s Dog Emmi Again

Dennis

Above you can see one of the dogs which enrich my uncle´s life. The dog you can see on the photo is called Emmi and I uploaded already some other photos of her. This is a very beautiful half-breed dog. She is really very confiding and playful. Sometimes too playful, because she can´t understand it if you stop to play, and that is at times quite exhausting I´d say. She is really so playful that the word “wild” would fit much better. But she is so cute. I shot this photo in Salem last weekend. Continue reading Uncle´s Dog Emmi Again

Purple Flower Photo

Dennis

This is just another flower that I found on grandma´s and grandpa´s camp ground in Salem. As I don´t know much about any flowers, I also don´t know the name of the flower on the image above. I am not even sure if my grandma did plant it or if it´s a wild flower that grew on her place. Anyway, I like this flower especially the tiny hairs on the plant stem. I was surprised that my point and shoot camera was able to let the plant hairs appear but I used the macro mode of my cheap camera, which … Continue reading Purple Flower Photo

Flower Stuck In The Hair

Dennis

My little cousin, she is cute. As often mentioned, my grandma and grandpa have a place on a camp ground in Salem but my uncle has a place there in the nature too with my aunt and their kids. So, when we arrived in Salem to visit them and to enjoy a canoe tour on the last weekend, my little cousin came to me and said “You are in the nature now, which means you need a flower in your hair!”. I thought she is right and said “Well, give me some flower power!” and all laughed. She did grab … Continue reading Flower Stuck In The Hair

The Canoe Ready For A Tour

Dennis

This is the borrowed canoe after we did put the boat into the water yesterday to start our canoe tour on the rivers in Salem and that was a lot of fun. The husband of my mother and me did use the canoe but my mother didn´t like to come with as she thought this boat would be quite unsteady but this is not true. I think a canoe is unsteady until you sit in and when the weight of all persons is in the middle. That´s all. But my mother was still afraid, so that only her husband and … Continue reading The Canoe Ready For A Tour
