Fritz and I approach the entrance to the Bretzenheim Cemetery (1906) to visit Helga's gravesite; some of her relatives live near here: the cemetery is over a hundred years old, the region settled millennia earlier
To all who visit and view, – and especially – express support and satisfaction: you are much appreciated!
Bretzenheimer Friedhof, Hildegard-von-Bingen-Straße – die Geschichte von Bretzenheim führt uns weit zurück, bis in die vorgeschichtliche, römische und fränkische Zeit, was Funde beweisen; das Gebiet des heutigen Stadtteils liegt im fruchtbaren Zaybach- und Wildgrabental, es lockte schon in den Anfängen des Ackerbaus die ersten Siedler hierher

Album Description –
Mainz-Bretzenheim, Germany – 12-14MAY2014:
When I got up from my arrival nap, I walked from the hotel to the Altmünsterkirche (a Münster in Germany – the English name is Minster – is a church of great importance; this one started in the 8th century, a Benedictine Abbey, then a Cistercian one, eventually becoming a pilgrimage church), the 2nd time I came to their church (cf. Evening & Morning in Mainz – 6OCT2013), then to Fritz Gerber at Fichteplatz; we walked to his wife’s grave in Mainz-Bretzenheim, the rose petals strewn by his children and grandchildren from her burial service this past weekend still fresh. We added new flowers, then went downtown to the Tuesday evening prayer group at St. John’s church (Evangelische Sankt Johannisgemeinde).
The beginning of last July I had met the Gerbers, Dina, and others at this church on my first crew layover in Mainz after about a decade, changing cities back again from Frankfurt.
Afterwards Dina had invited me for supper. I went alongside her motorized wheelchair, amazed how she negotiated curbs and construction areas, also at her independence in life, her talent, and creativity. I enjoyed dinner & our visit tremendously. Dina accompanied me to the hotel, giving me a fascinating Old Town tour on the way – and a new perspective on getting out and about, and how that can work. In the 2nd floor hotel lobby I met up with 4 of our crew ending the evening in great spirits.
Yesterday I walked about 7 miles in Mainz in brisk 50-degree Fahrenheit windy weather with intermittent spring showers on the heels of a mild winter that never dipped down to the freezing point. Today with the North Atlantic behind us, we got re-routed around thunderstorms; 9 hours 52 minutes after leaving Frankfurt we arrived in sunny, 83⁰ F Charlotte with more thunderstorms on the way, along with flash flood and tornado warnings.

Going to outside of Bab al Anser, also known as the Eastern Gate. An inscription on the inside of the gate reads: "Those who leave here have no option but to go in the direction of the river in front of the peaks of the mountains in harmony with the sky."

Another one of Ann Arbor's yards that always has something interesting strewn about. Not sure it's still the same family today, but this is the same house.
The unused gates are located at Everingham Hall in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. In 1967 the Hall, itself, was listed as a Grade 1 listed building.
Privately owned, in 1746, William Haggerston Constable inherited Everingham Park estate.

Happy Friday.
Thanks for looking!

Comments and constructive criticism always appreciated.
Gates was most interested in the discussion of future microprocessor improvements (multi-core, clock speed, on chip memory). You can tell because he starts rocking back and forth like a metronome with one foot in front of the other.
David House, formerly with Intel, is appropriately framed with the “microprocessor” and “integrated circuit” labels.
