How Do You Know You Are Back in Germany?

How do you know that you are back in Germany for a

week of work?  Well, that is easy... you go to the coffee

machine at the gate and get a free latte, then you go to

the paper rack and pick up a free paper.

Then you walk around a bit and see the latest Audi's

sitting in the middle of the terminal.  Hmmmm... can

I get that on as a carry-on?  Probably make me check it.

Surprise Ryman Concert - The Italian Singing Trio Il Volo

Nana surprised me with a Concert at the Ryman.  We

have never heard from the the Italian Trio from Italy

called the Il Volo but they sure were good.

Thanks Carol, lovely evening in Nashville...

Quintin Likes the Swing - Nana Likes Quintin

Carol and I walked to the grade school to pick up Amaya and 

on the way backwe stopped at the park.  Q is 6-months, going on 

18-months and at the end of the park play, I stuck him in the rubber 

swing and draped his arms over the front.  He was wedged in good 

and tight.  I gave him a bit of swing and all we heard was "howling" 

of the laughter type.  He loved the free swinging motion without 

any bounds.  (I think he wants to fly with his Papa.)  

At any rate, not only did he tickle himself but he was getting 

his Nana going as well.

I love Nana when she gets gooey!  Attaboy Q!!!

Apple Blossoms Early in DC - March 15th

We went to DC early this year and the apple blossoms were

already out!  It was a beautiful day, we hopped the train downtown,

Erica picked up their 1/2 Marathon bibs, and we walked a bit.

My second time to the Treasury to try to get a tour.

Not sure they are ever open...  offered the guard to pay for a tour
but he said my dollar was practically worthless.   And no, I did
not bribe him with additional worthless dollars. 

Kris Kristofferson Tribute Concert

Carol surprised me with a Nashville Tribute Concert to Kris

by a slug of Country Western performers.

My favorite tributtee, of course, was Willie Nelson.

He and his guitar are showing their age but his voice is still

strong, clear and still really Willie sounding.

Great Night, Thanks Carol!
