My post today on Vision and Verb tells you that OUR SHOPPE is now open. We're reprising images from the past 2+ years for sale as greeting cards. All profits will be loaned in $25 allotments through KIVA to the working poor of the world, helping them to start up their own businesses. I'm very pleased that my sewing machine has been incorporated into the Shoppe's button graphic. Fell free to shop and support a good cause!

While the crane's jib/working arm is what we normally watch, this end, the machinery arm, with its counter weights, is just as important. Kinda like Life being a balancing act...especially midweek! Gorinchem, Netherlands.

Last Friday I showed the guillotine part of the Prince Bernhard Locks. If you can get through there, you can then pass through the last lock. It takes approximately 20 minutes from beginning to end. Tiel, Netherlands. HAPPY WEEKEND! HAPPY SAILING!

On at least one windowsill in almost every Dutch home sits an orchid. This is one that sits on ours, thanks to Astrid's green thumb. Gorinchem, Netherlands.
