A hotel in Neuweier, Germany.

On the edge of the Black Forrest, where the cake comes from. A beautiful part of the world -- wine country. The same black Z4 E89 can be seen at the bottom left. This time with the roof up.

Around my mother's place in N.B., there's so many deer you really have to be careful driving along the two lane, rather narrow and twisty road where her house was. They'll jump out of ditch or from behind some trees and you have no time to avoid them. Lots of broken cars & injured or worse deer along there almost every day. I won't drive along that road after sunset - too risky 😧

That’s what it’s like here. Luckily the deer we see are smart and patient. They wait for the cars to either stop or pass by before they cross the road. The highway is very curvy and hilly. Luckily I’ve never seen anyone hit one.
In the spring we slow down expecting to see a deer and a fawn or two.

I heard one get hit when I was outside working at my Mum's place years ago. When a vehicle hits a living thing; person, deer or whatever it makes a very specific sound. Not like hitting another car or a tree or something. It's just a dull thud after some screaching tires. Never a good thing.

Well I’m glad to say I’ve never heard that sound before. Touch wood.
 
I stayed at this B&B in West Flanders, Belgium, near the French border.

The owner mentioned that the property has been in his family for four generations. He also said that King George V stopped at the property for just one hour in 1916. This may have some truth to it, as King George V was in France and Belgium in late 1916, visiting Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand soldiers.

I was never really a fan of American cars, but it seems that over the past few years, I've developed an appreciation for them.

This one caught me by surprise as I was walking out of a restaurant and saw it around the corner of the building.

Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale. 1975, perhaps?
