Happy 4th of July!
The United States seems so incredibly young, which I guess is due to the fact that it is.Thanksgiving and the 4th of July are two holidays that always make me homesick. I think it's the American spirit, gatherings, and the non-exclusive nature of the two. They both just seem so uniting and celebratory.
This is a photo I took a while back, at a county fair in Ohio, that my roommate took me to. I loved walking through the barn and seeing the animals. All of the farmers were very proud of their livestock and there was a great feeling of community. The glowing light just seems like a ray of hope and the flags are the sweetest little detail that give it the ultra Americana vibe.
Tomorrow I'll post more about how we spent our day.

You can cut and paste the German for a rough English translation.
I searched for Mettenheim bei Mühldorf Sieben erzengel and found this link through a Mühldorf page about churches (kirche) and religion.
As they say here, 'Grüß Gott' and best of luck.
I love that picture. It seems to really caputre Americana in all its glory.

Thanks! I thought the same thing. It's so middle-America.
