it is fall

Scenes from around my neighborhood.  This is the play yard behind Matthäuskirche, near my house.

 Cat stepping inside.  Note the ladder.

 Good old Oetlingerstrasse.  I hope to live on this street someday.  It's nice.

 Paper collection day, it happens once a month.

 I guess those posters count as "paper"

 View from the Johanniterbrücke of the river, golden trees in Kleinbasel, and the spires of Münsterkirche.  You can also see the Mittlere Rheinbrücke there in the lower right.

 Looking back to Kleinbasel from just across the Rhein.

 This is in the old part of the city, near the Schola Cantorum.

 In the yard at the Schola.

This one's for Maggie.  I wanted her to know how the agricultural economy works over here in Switzerland.  A farmer grows some vegetables.  He then picks them up off the ground and hands them over to a nice man from the Migros supermarket chain.  It may not be the most efficient system but we believe in it.

One last view of Kleinbasel trees, the quiet morning Rhein, and Grossbasel across the way.  Lovely.
