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

Photo Gallery: German Barbecue Fun With The Family

Dennis

My mother, her husband and me drove to Salem today, to visit my grandma and grandpa, my uncle and aunt and their kids. They have a caravan site there in the nature as I mentioned already a few times on my blog. They have this spot since decades when I was still a child. It´s basically a place where you can relax in the nature near the forests and the lakes if the warm season starts. But I think I mentioned often and you can find all the stories about Salem on my blog. Long story short… we met each … Continue reading Photo Gallery: German Barbecue Fun With The Family

Uncle´s Dog Emmi

Dennis

On the two photos above you can see Emmi. My uncle has two dogs. The other one is called Schani. Schani is rather a calm dog while Emmi is pretty wild and can never stop to play. They both are contrasts, really. My mother took the photos on the campsite in Salem. One of the images is sadly overexposed but I am too lazy today to check out if I can fix the image with Photoshop. Anyway, it´s category snapshot. Continue reading Uncle´s Dog Emmi

I Got A New All-In-One Printer

Dennis

In Germany we tend to say “Eine Hand wäscht die andere” which means “One hand washes the other”, if people help each other. If I can help a friend or family member, then I do it and I usually don´t demand anything in return. But it´s sometimes great if you get something offered in return as appreciation for your help. I helped my uncle out several times and last week he told me by phone that he has still one of these all-in-one or combo printers that he don´t need anymore because he got another one. He asked me if … Continue reading I Got A New All-In-One Printer

Daily Prompt: Make Me Smile

Dennis

The Daily Prompt asks: “If you’re feeling blah, what is the one thing you do that you can count on to put a smile on your face?” and I do think this is fairly easy to answer. If I meet my family, they can put a smile on my face very easy. Same counts for my friends… we can either rant together about any problems or we laugh about the problems to have a smile. Then, my cat makes me smile often too because she knows when I feel bad and then she comes to me. But playing guitar is … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Make Me Smile
