« Mark Twain on Hiking Mount Rigi to See a Sunrise | Main | Pirates of the Caribbean: Nth Time »

March 15, 2009

My Thursday morning commute

What I saw on my drive to my ladies' Bible group on Thursday:

- Sheep on the left

- Horses and cows on the right

- The snow-capped Rigi mountain over Lake Zug (the one Mark Twain hiked to see an alpine sunrise) to the left and Mount Pilatus to the right

- moss on the roof of a shed just after crossing over a stream

- 3 tanks going around a roundabout, with camouflaged soldiers manning the turrets

- a place that thinks it is large enough to have a village name (Schonau), whilst being composed entirely of one small farm, one house, one bus stop, and one shooting range.

Lovely and entertaining drive.

Did you know that, when I was 18 and visiting Europe for the first time, I actually took a cog railway up, and hiked down, Mt. Pilatus in the summer of 1963?! Very exhilarating and high adventure. I turned 19 that summer, between my sophomore and junior years at Smith. I loved being in Europe, and am so glad that you are enjoying living there! Love you so, Mom
