The Schwetzinger Schlossgarten is one of my favourite places on earth. It is so lovely when the weather heats up & you can have a picnic and nap under a tree, but i also like how it is so quiet in the colder months.


In Summer.


I also road tested my new painting box. It started out as a candle box, but heiko removed the glass frame lid and replaced it with a wood one & added a latch & handle. He's such a noyce fellow.
