Intro to Germany

[Hugh]

I visited Germany & Austria in 1962 while on overseas assignment. Besides the great biergartens and beautiful countryside, I was most impressed with the friendliness of the people and cleanliness of the country. Driving down the autobahnn you did not see any litter, the roadway was neatly trimmed and even the woods and forests along the highway were free of underbrush, dead limbs, etc. Maybe it was because they were in dire need of firewood, but the forests looked like they were kept as neat as the yards! <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />
