This afternoon we visited Bernd and Petra and their son Sascha, brother to Michael. We had a lovely visit, catching up on our lives during the last 10 years or so. Sascha is helping in the vineyards now, as the next generation takes over. Both Bernd and Petra have retired and are enjoying a quiet life and their garden.
Sascha showed me these photos, framed on their wall–the first is Grandpa Rudolf’s home, where Bernd’s parents, Kurt and Hilda lived after Grandpa came to America. Kurt’s brother, Rudolf also lived in that farm home.
Here is an aerial view of Bernd and Petra’s home now:
And this is the home Petra grew up in:
