Latest from Deutschland

Windmills on the Horizon
Sandi in Pekip
Our small town of Enkenbach
Colin is almost able to roll on his own
We are finally getting the groove over here , it has been hard with it always feeling so much darker since the sun doesn’t rise until 8 or so and sets much earlier. We have been toiling with the whole German beauracracy, good times. But atleast we have accomplished quite a bit. Sandi has been going to Pekip with Colin, it is a developmental class where he gets to roll around with other kids in the birthday suit. Colin loves it, mommy not so since it is like a sauna in the room. I will be going to a swim class with him starting in mid February.

No car yet, but with these gas prices…we can wait. We are actually going to test drive a Toyota Verso tomorrow, think of a larger Matrix (Sandi’s last car).

Weather has been warm (45 – 50F) with periods of rain, not at all what it should be. Normally it is much colder here, but we will be heading to the Alps soon for some XC skiing. Hopefully we can meet up with Smithy on his trip over here for World Winter Tris.

All in all things are good and we enjoy being here. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying that snow in Gunnison!
