What a lovely serene scene, reader wil. Also I love your new header although I did love that little dog - is he your dog?

We were there when we took a bike tour of the Netherlands. It was pretty frightening for me to ride a bike on the roads in some of the busier places but seeing those windmills as well as Keukenhof was such a thrill. I loved it. Thanks you for bringing back that lovely memory.

Wonderful windmill, so very Dutch. My mother might cry if she saw it. It's exactly the memory I have of Holland through her eyes.

Wonderful reflection Wil.
Your link was informative. I guess windmills were the first "green" power source. I did a bit more research and was surprised to learn all the uses of the Dutch windmills. Perhaps we need to go back more in order to move forward today as we search for "green." We are using them here for electricity generation but they do not have the charm of the Dutch windmills.

I was happy just gazing at the windmill, something I don't see too often ~ but the reflection makes it that much more interesting.

We staan weer aan het begin van een nieuwe week en hopelijk een die wat droger zal zijn dan de vorige
