Gasthaus near Dresden, Germany On our only trip to Europe, my wife and I travelled light - my watercolor set literally fit in my shirt pocket. This gasthaus (guesthouse) in the former East Germany had been newly redecorated and upgraded. The woman who operated it spared no effort to ensure our comfort. I sat on a pile of bricks and sketched this scene in very short order, part of the time with a very friendly neighborhood cat curled up in my lap.
