And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I worked as an Army contractor after I retired from the AF where I had many projects in Germany to the point I had a rudimentary understanding of the language and could speak some phrases. Mid-summer through Christmas there was some type of fest or Christmas Market celebration almost every week in some town or berg. Germans and other European nationals of the fairer sex in Germany were very welcoming and had very little inhabitations.
Munich Oktoberfest is a huge, noisy, commercial, pissy-eyed-drunk hellhole.
The smaller towns and villages have much more fun and comfortable fall and harvest fairs. same girls, better beer, same old guys with huge mustachios and leather pants, way better music.
My daughter just returned from Germany last Wednesday. She told me that Germans love America and Americans. I think that is about to change.

DeleteDoes that mean they have an extra room for me to stay in, or does it mean they have a tiny house?
DeleteI'm a fan of cleavage :-)
ReplyDeleteYes 👍🏻
DeleteThe gents in the lower picture are offering free mustache rides.
ReplyDeleteLooks as if the two gents on the right have bushy hats.
ReplyDeleteI love drindl (the dresses). I wish American women would wear them.
ReplyDeleteA woman in a drindl and high heels is about as sexy as it gets.
