One of the non fog days of my vacation. So strange how it's there one day and not the next.
The weather has been amazing here and I have almost finished cutting up the fallen tree limbs. Some of the other people who live in my Townhouse community are suppose to help gather up the cutup limbs and stack them for future firewood. We'll see how that goes.

"A place to rest
isn't given to us.
Suffering humans
we falter we fall
from one hour to the next,
like water thrown
from cliff to cliff,
year after year,
down into the Unknown."
Friedrich Hölderlin "Hyperions Song of Destiny"
Following James Mitchell's translation with a few changes
www.babelmatrix.org/works/de/Hölderlin,_Friedrich/Hyperi...
Deutsch:
Doch uns ist gegeben,
Auf keiner Stätte zu ruh'n;
Es schwinden, es fallen
Die leidenden Menschen
Blindlings von einer
Stunde [zur] andern,
Wie Wasser von Klippe
Zu Klippe geworfen,
Jahrlang in's Ungewisse hinab.
Friedrich Hölderlin, "Hyperions Schicksalslied"

Don't expect something very reflected or even a critical view to the history and the impact of individual mobility. But the architecture and the exhibits are both very impressive.
Silver Arrows (German: Silberpfeil) was the name given by the press to Germany's dominant Mercedes-Benz and Auto Union Grand Prix motor racing cars between 1934 and 1939.

"Deep Draw" Genuine (Chris Zippel)
Brussels, Galerie Ravenstein. Another Version.
An important pedestrian link between the ville haute and ville basse (uptown and downtown Brussels), the Galerie Ravenstein leads to Gare Centrale. It is incorporated in a huge office building, four storeys high.Its original aim was to give a new boost to the neighbourhood, which was heavily affected by the destructive works for the Nord-Midi (north-south) junction. Designed as a shopping gallery which could house 81 shops, it was built between 1954 and 1958 in the International style, according to plans by the architects Alexis and Philippe Dumont, who designed the nearby building which houses Shell’s offices."

"Bart and Lisa really love the Itchy & Scratchy Show.
They turn it on each day right after school.
When those crazy TV "cutups" carry on and come to blows,
Bart and Lisa "yuck it up" and think it's cool!"

I am mostly off the next seven days. Thank you all for your kind attention and your feedback.
For Whom the Bell Tolls
John Donne
No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

Museu Coleçåo Berardo, Lisboa, Portugal
The reflection on the floor is from Miguel Palma's "Google Plane 1968-2008, 2008" hanging from the ceiling.
Initially this building was not founded as a museum but as a Cultural Center to be used as a symbolic building during the Portuguese Presidency of the European Union in 1992. The project was developed and implemented between 1988 and 1993 by two architects: the Italian Vittorio Gregotti and the Portuguese Manuel Salgado.
