Strahlenberger School
Strahlenburg is the castle ruin above the town of Schriesheim at the Bergstraße. The local school is quite logically called Strahlenberger Schule. It’s quite a typical primary school building around here.
What caught my eye were the windows decorated for Easter or maybe just spring.
But the real eye-catcher were the reflections in the various panels.

Morning Has Broken
far too early
Those are the last dawn pictures for a long time, at least for me. It just happens too early.
I can’t even see straight at this time of day.

I’m a Fan of Lily Magnolia Close-Ups
After the last two weeks and mine and other people’s magnolias, here the ones from my garden. They are a deep pink and I enjoy taking close-ups of the blossoms as the tree is still kind of small and doesn’t look impressive yet. I hope it will be in a few decades.
This reminds me of the gardening book we bought when we lived in South Africa. The author recommended planting a yellowwood tree in the middle of the lawn. Yellowwoods grow to be very old and become gynormous with age. They are indeed wonderful trees.
The book said: “In 100 years it will be too big for your garden. But you won’t be around to worry about it.”

If You Don’t Have Any
you go to a gym to get some.
This particular one tries to go against the trend of frilly upmarket gyms. The name suggests a muscle factory and underneath in dialect (always difficult to transcribe) it says: “Elsewise than elsewhere” (awkward phrasing but dialect is notoriously awkward to translate).

Remember?
Three years ago playgrounds were closed because of the “curséd Covid”. The town admin put up a flimsy red and white tape and a notice. It wasn’t impregnable yet it was.
