The Open Air Museum in Kommern, Germany

 For many years I do read a blog from Willy, a Dutch lady that lives in the Province where Pieter is born, in Gelderland/The Netherlands.

She is an excellent photographer and she visits the most interesting places.

Willy has been battling Leukemia and is back on track and we sure wish her a lot more time with her close travel companion and husband!

Open Air Museum Kommern, Germany

So I spotted on her blog: The open-air museum in Kommern - Het openluchtmuseum in Kommern and new it was the one we visited! Just click the link and yes, she has a translator on the side, a little down.

Both of us got invited to join our 3 German sons as they took a day off for showing us around at Kommern Freilicht Museum in the Eifel.An act of gratitude as they were our guests here in Georgia and we were there for them if needed while traveling in the USA.Family, not by blood...We went on to Switzerland and Italy for visiting friends.Doing so, I forgot my black Chanel boots, after a night with our friends in the Eifel, Germany and had to retrieve them on the way home...Adventures!

YES, we also DID PLAY!

 For those of you that might think we always were working or flying from A to B, we actually DID PLAY too!

Both of us LOVED to play tennis as it is an active sport!

Pieter on the court...

And me...

With Gloria one of our tennis teachers in the back...

But we have had to drop this as our schedule was always such that we could not continue with scheduling classes or whatsoever...

But at least we ENJOYED it! 

Maybe next life...?!

Uncle Bo Whaley's 15th Birthday in Heaven

 

A young and handsome Uncle Bo Whaley, when he was in the army...

From 1954 till 1974 he worked as an F.B.I. Agent and lived all over the U.S.A.

He later became a columnist and writer and published a lot of books, we do have 11 of them!

Several with a personal message...

On October 7, 1988 shortly before we moved to Pennsylvania, Uncle Bo came to dinner at our home, as a farewell and he gave us the special Friendship Poem
