Time for my blog update, to collect photo’s, resize them and begin to formulate stories. One on culture, Den Bosch and people, another on the journey to Rotterdam, and then process photos of our work in studio 9.

I’ve walked into Den Bosch multiple times, but Saturday evening after making panels all day, we are heading into town as “locals” with Christine. I notice, perhaps not for the first time, name plaques on the building up above the entry doors at the 2nd floor level. I comment upon these. Christine volunteers an explanation. At one time, before Napoleon, buildings in the walled town were named. If you came to the village, you located someone’s home, by inquiring after the home of the trumpeter or baker, etc. These signs still note the home of …. then street numbers and now the reference might be, take the alley near the T-Mobile shop.
