A Post A Post!

I really haven't gotten to post much these days. Which is ok. There's been plenty to do with traveling, unpacking, seeing friends, sleeping, talking, thinking, thinking some more, reading, helping out family etc. You know how it goes. But, now that I downloaded my pictures from Germany, and that my brain is racking up more and more thoughts on this and that, it is time to unload a bit, and get a post out. But, since it is late, we will start off with something short.

Something else I don't like about Germany, though, admittedly it is nothing German. Just unpleasant. Rope burn. I don't recommend it. When I was out running, I met my dad who was walking my brother's excited young puppy. She was so excited that she had to run around me, and her leash burned right into my calfs. I now realize why it is referred to as a 'burn' - because it does burn! And just so you can completely sympathize here are some pictures (cropped of course to display as little as possible of my nasty legs). Don't you love that I post nasty pictures like this? Oh, and do not be deceived. These aren't little scratches. They went all around the back of my leg. Yup.
