"NAARDEN" Where I live...

The area in Holland where we live is called " Het Gooi en de Vechtstreek Click on the link to read more..." On walking-distance of my house is the little VESTING-town NAARDEN, a beautiful OLD little city with very old historical buildings . 2 of them are really impressing me because of their shapes, and they look even better because of their famous brown/orange brick stone. In Holland you can see everywhere this type of brick-stones ,they use it for building factories and houses in the 2 colours Brown-orange and even yellow Brickstones . (The designer Berlage designed houses with this type of stones and he also used black a lot) Always when I am abroad in the SOUTH of Europe ( Like: Spain,Greece, France,Italy) I wonder why their houses are always so lovely with their pastle soft colours..... But I also like this tough brown-ornage stone type, its so typical or Holland. Can you imagine why I like to live here? I do!

Wishing you a GOOD weekend ,

You guys are so nice to stop and leave generous comments about my work.
I love what I do. It is super-special to be able to be alive, retired, own everything and be free from pain. Just imagine that.
I am nuts about my wife after 53 years of being married and us having 5 children; three of whom are half a century old or older. Think about it.
Your work is inspirational to me. I come to repay your visit, or start a new one with you, and I see what you have photographed. I read what you have written. I am a person of ideas and the wheels begin to turn and tomorrow one of my blog posts will be published because of what I saw here first.
