Stau fertig! We’re moving again.

German word for “traffic jam” is nigh-perfect: Stau. We’re in the mother of them all right now, on the A7 south of Kassel. :-(

On the Autobahn from Frankfurt to Lemgo. So far, TomTom GPS has held up great; $60 on maps was well spent.

As anniversary gifts go, @heidihoover’s was pretty stellar: I got to visit the house where my grandmother was born.

Visiting my great-great-grandfather’s grave. Didn’t think we’d find it, but here it is.

Heading out for breakfast and visit to Grandma’s childhood house, now used as town hall in Erfelden.

File under “things I didn’t know, but which are completely unsurprising given a moment’s thought”: http://skitch.com/t/fn2

It’s already 7/4 here, so I hereby wish myself and @heidihoover a very happy 9th anniversary.

Hour-long Skype call with Grandma to gather data for visit to hometown today. I should really be recording these.
