Flowery window in Strasbourg - Week's End

We're sure we'd feel so much better here at GG Central if we had our empty flower box filled with these geraniums (or coral ones, perhaps). Busy working on D-Day material, so we'll see you Saturday. Of course, Strasbourg was right in the thick of it during the battle to liberate France, as the Allies moved eastward. GG's editor lived but a few hundred meters from Nazi bunkers; her bedroom, & indeed the entire building, had been occupied by the Germans 30 years before. We swear there were ghosts. France is much on our mind this week, this summer. [photograph used by permission from the lovely & talented Pipernille in Helsinki, see here for her photograph sets.]

Details, details, details

Doors, windows, walls, addresses, too. Details? set from Giampaolo Macorig of Rome. Giampaolo seems to wonder if they're important...yeah, we think so. Darfur events & things-you-can-do coming Thursday. Meanwhile, visit Enough! & their orange-y website. You want details about Darfur, South Sudan, & more? Well, that's where you should go. Please.

Venetian Room With a View

Good morning. From Alice Lucchin's Without Soul series, "The view from my brother's room..." (Vista dalla finestra della camera di mio fratello...). Lovely composition, shadows. Hope to see you later today.

For brief relief...look out a window, real or otherwise
