I acquired this little etching (it is 10 x 10cm; 4×4 inches) shortly after moving to Germany in 2004. Oddly, I did not blog about my trip to the Wartburg.
This was acquired after I realized that I wanted to buy pictures representing the places that I was visiting but before I realized that […]

This page is no longer updated. The author is no longer living in Thüringen.
It’s suddenly come to my attention that the Gay Thüringen website closed down.
And in the spirit of speedy discovery and announcements, it “died” August 27, 2007; I noticed February […]
It’s been awhile since I’ve really talked about anything here in Germany, so I thought that perhaps it was time to do a review of recent news and events here in Deutschland.
First up, is the weather. It’s been cold and rainy all weekend long. Unpleasantly so. I had a fantasy of heading outside this […]
