Anyone who knows the Black Forest would immediately recognize a Black Forest guest house. That wonderful place that you’re waiting to see at the end of a long trail walk in any weather where you will have coffee, homemade guest house food and black forest cake. The green ceramic structure that you see is how the room is heated. Inside, wood is burning and the tiles hold the heat for a very long time. The jugs at the top are in typical Black Forest patterns. Wet coats dry quickly hanging on the tile.

A transitional space. Darkness to light, and the unknown.

Early evening after a long walk and the moon follows us home.

Transitional spaces. You can only imagine what stands before this space and what lies beyond. Imagination is everything.

The presence of the castle reflects the power of the origins of the German Emperors.

Aside from the fact that the Mosel River is so accessible to everyone living on the banks, I was taken by the mist retreating from the morning sun.

I’m always fascinated by a workman’s tools, and here was a wall of tools that was totally unfamiliar to me. Wine Country!
These are the tractors that are used to harvest the grapes.

This is the the oldest city in Germany, founded in or before 16 BCE. This building, Porta Nigra, is build of grey sandstone. Interesting to note it was the Romans that brought wine to the Moselle Valley. The soldiers, tired of importing wine from Rome, decided to grow it where they lived.
