Postman brought this to me from Canada - Susan Cuss painted it
and I was gifted with it - thank you so much for this wonderful surprise
Back in Schwarzwald we started to explore fortified castles
near our town Altensteig-Berneck.
This one is Hohennagold
situated high above the town Nagold
and oh, I love towers and embellished this fairytale book
a few years ago with Karen Ruane
I was looking for the window on top - and for Rapunzel -
but neither - nor!
Just the entrance on the ground
Old walls
gateways
Old walls
gateways
and towers
and a stone ball sculpture
I climbed the stairs and
and looked down on DH

Then another day
A walk with friends
through the woods
marvelling at mushrooms - not collecting them
Back in the basis camp
Back in the basis camp
hedge overgrown by pumpkin plants
our winterstock of Hokkaidos
same procedure as every year - already known to my readers.
Castle exploration sounds like a fun time. There's something so romantic about castles.....or is it just the magic from fairy tales of the past? So glad you are happy with your mail gift. Hugs
