The Dream-Team 2007 consisting of 6 guys, one slave driver and one dog, as well as lots of beer cans!Click onto the pictures to see a bigger version of it. With the back key you'll get to the main page. The team was well choosen and was hitting the road with a rented car. Allready on the fairy it was clear, that "Mäuschen" was missed by Hans-Helmut and he had to look for other possibilities. No rock was to big to get lifted by either Herbert or Hans-Helmut, and they were both able to split them into two parts. They surely did a very hard job. We were working in different groups. This group was with construction supervisers Herbert and Hans-Helmut and the unscilled worker Bernd (stupid, strong and waterproof) ;-)) and Axel as concrete guy and porter. We made a natur stone terrace of the best. The second group was Jürgen and Christoph, they worked as "wood worms" and made a stairway (to paradies) and a cupboard. At the second working place at the house of Åke and Bibi, Christian repaired a trailer workmanlike and with lots of creativity. He was the right man on the right place! Christoph was in his elements on this kind of work. His face was beaming and after two hours he was completely splotchy and oily. But not only working was written on our plan, we also had a barbecue every night at the nice grilling place where we spent most of the night watching the sunsets. With a good meal, lots of to drink, and wonderfull sunsets we could sit forever on this place of paradies. Hans-Helmut did his stint not only during the big campfire talks, but also by playing his music instrument and singing. He knows everybody and every song, probably also God and the whole world (smile), our Herbert. Lunchtime was there too, sometimes, well, in fact every day. The whole week long we had temperatures of 30 degrees C (around 90 F), lots of sunshine and work, and we needed as many rests where we could regenerate from our slave driver, who took good care of us in excellent food. Has it been to much work, to much beer, to much singing, or just not enough sleeping? Hans-Helmut was tired of something and needed a good rest on the bench. At our favorite place on the mountain across the lake we had a stop and rest during our hiking tour. From there we could see most of the lake. This year only Willi, Herbert and Bernd were hiking, the others preferred to fishing on the lake. By Jürgen, Christoph, Axel, Hans-Helmut and dog Till we got picked up after the hike with two boats and we drove apon the lake back to Paradies. Fish eating was meant to do, when Pitti and Boy, friends of us, were visiting us. They had three big trout fishes, smoked, enough to feed us all very well. Visit at Boy and Pitti's place close by Glava, they have a summer house at the lake. 3 "Vetter"-guys at the barbecue place: Axel and dog Till are singing a duett. Åke and Bibi came to us for to say good bye. They are allways a good help, very hospitality, and we ask them allways a lot, because they are sooo nice and sweet. The week was over much to quickly. |
