I am always reminded of the movie THE BLIND SIDE when reading this poem. Wonder why? 🤓

Now, we are celebrating #200PnPcovers, and our favorite #soldier has returned! This year, he is joined by Lydia, lovely and glowing, fresh from a #walk! (Poor Ted)
[Unfortunately, we could not get them in the same photo, as Lydia kept attempting to disrobe Wickham. 😆]
Congratulations, Cynthia! I‘m so glad I got to celebrate your 200 party with you! ❤️
pickThis is a memorable, moving account from a Viennese Jew who ended up in Hitler‘s ranks, on the Russian Front. He was open about being Jewish, and somehow allowed to live, and be used in the German war machine. There are unforgettable accounts in this book, (and one wonders what else did he not write)? He immigrated to America, later to Mexico, and continued to paint and finally write down his story of survival. Recommended!
Looking through the window of the station restaurant, I could see people sitting at tables with white table cloths, dining with forks and knives. After a few minutes, a waitress in a white apron came out and asked whether I was hungry. She let me inside and maneuvered me to a table decorated with a bouquet of purple asters. Then she brought the food for which I obviously wasn‘t able to pay. There must still be good and generous people alive,
