For Germans Only........

...is something I am voicing occasionally. Sorry, my only english speaking friends, sometimes things just cant be translated, or maybe my translating capacity is too limited. - But in this connection our stay in South Dakota 2 years ago comes to my mind. Now for the ones of you who might be wondering -Why South Dakota? - Its been the buffaloes!And, my German friends, dont tell me now: "why travel thousands of miles to watch some WILD COWS", it has been worth it, that round up of about 2000 buffaloes, that stampede of those beasts in the early,autumn morning light has been a sight always to be remembered. But, I am getting off the track, circling now back to ,and actually it is" PARKING FOR GERMANS ONLY", a sign which had been given to us by some very nice guests from Atlanta, staying at the same B&B, Flying B Ranch,which had been our quarters for that time. They discovered it ,while touring the Black Hill area, where at some village there had been kind of German type festivities. We had a big laugh of course, all of us, and from then on we put up the sign where we parked our car, it only left about 3500 acres parking space for the remaining 2 cars!- Yes, we had a great time with Bonnie and Larry, our hosts, they have been bending over backwards to make us feel comfortable. Bonnie gave us very explicit instructions (she used to be a teacher!) every morning,what to "sightsee", and they cooked such a delicious breakfast every morning, still licking my fingers for those pancakes and the scrambled eggs with hot peppers,which made your eyes water. Well, look at the place for yourselves: www.flyingb.com/index.htm .
South Dakota has, take the Black Hill area, an European touch, but the Prairie and the Badlands are strange and fascinating to us.

So, now we have that nice sign, only we have not had any idea yet, how to use it around here,too many Germans around! Suggestions appreciated!
And now, watch out, there will be another quiz coming up soon!
