I was in Germany last week and fortunate enough to make it to Remagen, Germany—the scene of a famous WWII battle at which my father was seriously injured and for which he won the Purple Heart. For lack of anything better to carry some Remagen dirt home in I took off one of my socks, filled it, and successfully smuggled it through customs. Yesterday a surreal situation played out in our garage. I had Alexander and Teddy fill little tiny corked bottles with the dirt to give to all the relatives as keepsakes. Its a little difficult to imagine that the farm boy from Wisconsin could have even dreamt of that scene. There were his grandchildren lovingly preserving battle field dirt—that his son brought home from a friendly trip to the land of the enemy—wearing the bright red German soccer warm-up suits I bought them as gifts. Germany is their favorite team. #NX30 #imagelogger #forevermoments #ditchthedslr #Remagen #WWII
