Fribourg, nestled on a rock promontory, is surrounded on three sides by the Sarine river. It is one of the largest medieval towns in Switzerland. Over 200 unique Gothic facades from the 15th century impart incomparable medieval charm to the Old Town.

For Window Wednesdays.
I found another version of Snowflake sitting in the shed window from this past spring. You can see more than just his eyes in this one.
He watches out and manages his kingdom, unseen by most, from this window everyday.
I like the reflections in the glass on this one.

Acorn Street is located in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It has been said that Acorn Street is the most photographed street in Boston. This cobble stone street is lined with Boston’s finest townhouses.

This is in Sintra Portugal, where streets are paved with these square-ended paving stones. In this place, there was lichen-y stuff growing around the stones and the pattern resembles (to me) a chain-link fence... Happy Fence Friday!
A home builders group had a competition where they built kids play houses. I think they were auctioned off for charity. This was the cutest one, in my opinion. I love the roof line, the little round-top door and the lovely lavender color!
I was taking so many "scenery' photos on our trip, that I couldn't resist this colorful flowerbox in Berea, Kentucky in the Old Town where we visited several craft shops with working craftspeople. I watched a lady make glass beads and a man make a pewter mug. Very cool!
apparently this is not showing up on some contacts pages, and many of yours are not showing on mine....
Ronnie was on Michigan Avenue near Nordstrom's, leaning up against a flowerbox, all bundled up with jackets and a sleeping bag. She hangs out with her friends James and Ron. Where she was sitting was also the same place they sleep at night. She's been homeless for about two years. She was over in one of the Western neighborhoods, but it was more dangerous there, so now she's here. She's tired of being homeless and wants to get off the street. She's worked in warehouses before, as some waitressing as well. She is need of clothes, including clothes that would help her when she interviews for a job.
Hello, photographic peoples!
I missed this and you. How about some lovely hanging planters for this Monday morning?
I haven't a clue as to what this is but it's usually covered in flowers. I love the patterns on the throat of the flower!
Alsace is such a wonderful place to visit, people were welcoming and everywhere we looked it was clean and well kept, the only sas point was that many people are now too old to take care of their flower boxes, which is a tradition, and as you can see on the picture, the support for the boxes are still there, but the flowers have disapeared. hopefully they will find younger ones that still carry this pride.
In summer Schiller´s family lived in this house in Jena. In the garden, there was the kitchen and a very small wooden house, where Schiller wrote his dramas. The kitchen, you see in this photo, is in a distance of about thirty metres to the main house.

When I saw this little box of Evan Zodl I fall in love with it!
This year at Prien, the kindly Heide Karst teached the box of Evan Zodl. But I remembered not all the steps. With the help of a origami friend in combination with some of my notes I was able to fold this beauty :-) !
Claudia Maroska, a german origamist, taught the Flower Box at first at the German Origami Convention which I missed. Claudia made a lovely variation of this box. She formed some “Mausezähnchen” (I don’t know a translation for this; it means the little teeth of mice) at the edge of the lid.
The design of Even is great and each paper gives a different touch. I love the little box with “Julia’s-paper”.
I hope you like it.

Album – Babenhausen, Hesse, Germany – 2018SEP07-08:
Mother went this time last year to Babenhausen to visit the Blachniks, whom our family has known 58 years, and we were planning for her to go over again stand-by on the flight I was working this weekend. It began to fill and I was unable to swap trips: if my scheduled flight had no empty passenger seats, I could not carry my mother over the ocean on that day, so Joe agreed to accompany her the day before and I would work the next day to Frankfurt, then ride the crew bus to Mainz, take the train to Babenhausen, visit Mother and the Blachniks, and pick Joe up. He and I would take the train to Mainz, and he would ride back with me while I worked the flight to Charlotte.
And we did! So Mother is in Babenhausen, Joe & I in Charlotte. Next we need her return trip back to the States.
As my vacation is starting, I plan to fly back stand-by, see the Blachniks, Mother, and maybe her host family in Babenhausen a few days while I stay at a hotel, then take Mother by train to Mainz she wants to see, and fly stand-by again; after landing in Charlotte she will overnight with her sister Marie Robinson in Gastonia, to break up the drive back to her home in Brevard.
Hope you enjoy this 37% of our 184 Babenhausen captures!
This is a very typical Swiss Chalet in the Berner Oberland Region. We were passing this amazing display last summer. I was so excited to see such an abundance of flowers that I wasn't able to hold the camera still, hence the wobbly picture.
I look forward to a bit more colour in the weeks and seasons ahead of us!
notably the crane - la grue - of the county of Gruyère.
Etymology in brief: Gallo-Roman/Frankish Gau (district) > in German Hochgau (French Haut-Pays/high country) > Ogo > Gruerie > Gruyère (9th century).
There's a small island called Ogoz in the lake of Gruyère.
From wiki:
Les anciens pagus gallo-romains ayant pris le nom de Gau, un des premiers officiers de cette subdivision territoriale, gouvernée par Rodolphe Ier de Bourgogne, est Turimbert, nommé comte d'Ogo ou Hochgau (traduit par : Haut-Pays, Gau était un terme vieux francique désignant une division politico-géographique d'une nation, l'équivalent d'un district). Ogo est l'ancien nom du comté de Gruyère occupant la totalité de la haute vallée de la Sarine dont le chef-lieu est le Château-d'Œx dans le Canton de Vaud, où le comte exercera le droit de justice pour les eaux et la forêt, cet office est désigné sous le nom de Gruerie, avec le temps il deviendra le nom propre de la famille de Gruyère qui portera le titre de comte dès le IXe siècle comme le prouve la charte de fondation du prieuré de Rougemont.
RIVERWALK:
The Chicago Riverwalk is an open, pedestrian waterfront promenade located on the banks of the Chicago River in downtown Chicago. It spans from Lake Shore Drive to Franklin Street - and meanders past 10 of the Chicago River's 29 moveable bridges.
Plans to develop the banks of the Chicago River into a public walkway were already created at the beginning of the 20th century but they only started to materialize almost 100 years later - with construction beginning in 2001.
As of 2012, plans are in progress to turn an underused stretch of the river from State Street to Lake Street into a bustling recreation spot. The ambitious plan should ultimately result in almost 28 miles (45km) of waterfront promenades.
