God Bless. Enjoy winter scenery, but not the cold. How’s your weather? I’m thankful Hurricane Helene has passed and won’t do anymore damage in our area. Thank you for sharing your time and thoughts with us. I appreciate y’all very much.
For this the last week of September and I light of the Effects of Hurricane Helene, I have chosen to choose a theme of Any Paved Roads where I am focusing on Paved Roads in Germany. I am challenging everyone to participate in this week’s Which Way Challenge by sharing your Paved Roads.
In the Winter of December 1978/January 1979 my parents flew over to Germany to visit my brother & his family. [My brother was stationed there for a few years while serving in the United States Air Force.]
Shown above are just a few of the Paved Roads my parents rode on while visiting with my brother in Germany. What kind of Paved Roads will you find to share with us? I hope y’all will share your Which Ways with us. Looking forward to Cee taking the Which Way Challenge back on in October.
Thank you for visiting and sharing my parents memories with me. They enjoyed their time in Germany, however, I do not recall seeing their slide photos before I began digitizing my Dad’s slides.

Who begins counting down to Christmas in August? Amazingly some people do, even Google & Siri are already counting down to Christmas. It’s not even Halloween or Thanksgiving yet. Why Count down to Christmas so early? Some people use an Advent Calendar to count down to Christmas, but they only start the count down at the beginning of December.
Retailers begin selling Christmas decorations in August to spread out demand and avoid the last-minute shopping rush.
Thinking about Christmas in August helps people to avoid last-minute holiday travel expenses, as well as helps you to budget your finances. Spreading out the cost of the Holidays helps to reduce strain and stress on yourself and your budget.
Mentioning Stress, why stress yourself out over Christmas? Save early — Plan ahead — Shop early — Make gifts ahead of time or perhaps throughout the year. These ideas help to give yourself a peace of mind and you’ll be more likely to enjoy the Christmas holiday season with friends and family.
Christmas 1978
Speaking of family, these photos with Santa Claus were taken in Germany in December of 1978. The first photo shows Santa’s arrival. The next photo shows my niece, Jennifer, on Santa’s lap. The third photo is of my niece, Sherry, on Santa’s lap. And the fourth and last photo is of my brother with his daughters and other children (probably at a Church Christmas party). [My brother was stationed in Germany while in the U.S. Air Force.]
Merry Christmas! Well just relax — you’ve got plenty of time to get ready for Christmas ( that is if you start early).
