Zugspitze

Over Easter vacation Megan and I spent a week in the Bavarian Alps on the border with Austria. We spent two days hiking through the mountains, one day in Innsbruck, and another day in Munich. It was such a nice trip and a beautiful area. We stayed in a small vacation apartment run by a very nice old lady. She even gave us some homemade cake one day!

Well, the area was just so nice that I wanted to post a picture from our trip. This is looking north toward the Zugspitze, the highest point in Germany.

One missed job opportunity

I ran across an ad the other day while searching through some possible translation job opportunities. I really should have replied. This is what it said:

Basically I am writing personal letters in English to a friend in Germany. The letters are only a few hundred words each and I write clearly. The scope of this particular project is just one letter for the time being. More work might ensue later. I need someone who speaks fluent German and is able to understand the subtleties of personal male-to-female communication! Can pay Escrow if required. Thanks.

On the other hand, maybe it's best that I didn't respond. Who knows what might have come up in those letters!
