I haven't been around the blogosphere for a while...and I am not sure that I have any good excuses or reasons.  I respect you more as readers than to insult you with fluff-I have just had a very bad case of blogger's block mixed in with a tinge of laziness.  That's it.  Then as the time got longer and more stretched out, I started to stress about how to get back into the swing of things.  I have therefore decided just to dive back in...so here goes...

I have a lot of things to show you that the Hub and I have been up to, and beautiful Fall has arrived in Munich.  So, I am hoping to win back your readership and that you really will continue to visit.

Starting with the next post, I will do a quick "camera/cell phone dump" to get myself up to speed..and then back to blogging as usual.  I am glad to be back and look forward to sharing some nifty Munich things with you soon.
