Excellent photos, as always! What a beautiful selection for the letter G!
The photos of the river with all the waterfalls is breathtaking and your parents garden is delightful! What a fantastic location. Did you grow up in that area?

Yes, I grew up in this small village on the foot of the mountain and the edge of the forest which still has not more than about 13 houses, maybe 15 or 16 with barns and stables 🙂

Thank you very much for your kind comment and that you like my photos, Melinda, I do hope to take fresh photos of that green river soon 🙂

Have a great day and a wonderful week 🙂

Cheers and !BEER

What a marvelous childhood you must have had, to be surrounded by all that beauty and up close with nature! No wonder you have such a deep appreciation of our natural world.

I don't know if it would have been the same if we would have had smartphones and the internet back then, but I don't think so, because I can see seldom kids playing in the forest or in the fields around like we did.

It was a different world for all of us before technology took over our lives. In many ways it is great and I can't imagine being without it, but in other ways it is terribly sad.

Right, our children play with virtual friends nowadays and they meet online in snapchat or however these apps are called ;)

But I agree, I wouldn't want to miss any technology that I have today, although I am very glad that we even didn't have a calculator at school 😉

Maybe with a calculator I wouldn't have done so poorly in math! 😁

In elementary school, we have been about 20-25 children in class, from the 6 year old beginners to the 10 year old all in one room. We had one teacher only. While the teacher was teaching a class, the older students were teaching the younger. Believe me, that way we learned much more than the children in ordinary schools.
When I changed to a secondary school I could only laugh at other children when they used calculators. Short time later I got my own calculator and laziness began 😂

Cheers and !BEER and have a great day @melinda010100 🙂

I have seen older friends age, who never learned how to use a computer, sitting in front of a TV with little contact with the outside world. I am so grateful for all the technology in my life!

... as long as you don't tell Alexa to write your comments 😉

I think, we have developed all this technology to make our life easier. So, why shouldn't we use it as much as we can? Especially if you are handicapped or if there other medical reasons for you which make your life harder, devices which help you in your daily routines are great and essential.
