Raise a glass and toast to friendship! 💜 This is our reveal of the month, 3 of Cups from the upcoming Whimsy Woods Tarot I'm creating with author Deborah Blake, to be published by Llewellyn! This image makes me happy. It was inspired by a rewatch of Practical Magic and that fun margarita scene.

#adoorablethursday A back gate of the Willem Vroesehuis, an old almshouse in the Dutch town of Gouda, which provided a home to impoverished older men. A function it had from the mid 16th century until 1977 AD. #photography #architecture

Old and new collide in the city hall of Zwolle, the Netherlands. It consists of a (very much altered) 15th century part, and a modernist extension, built in 1972-75. #architecture #photography #wederopbouw #wederopbouwwoensdag

Post a banger that isn’t in English. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQfc... (the whole intro is also worth a listen, but I wanted to focus on the non-english part) ^_^

A little architectural trip back to the Netherlands of the 1990's. More specifically, the Kattenbroek neighborhood in Amersfoort. Built at the beginning of the decade after a plan by Ashok Bhalotra. #architecture #photography #vakantiemangezellighe

Today's soundtrack for coming home from work and unwinding for a little bit.

Details from the provincial government building of Noord Brabant, located in Den Bosch, the Netherlands. #photography #art

I gave this another try on the turntable tonight, but it's just not my thing. To my brain it's just electric elevator music. As if all the emotion has been surgically removed lest it offends the oversensitive ear.

Cold, dark, winter evenings are perfect for spotting birds. Look, here's one. :-)

Post your favorite Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only. (Dear Irish, since you're no longer using him, can we have him? We could use a man like that over here right now. Sincerely, the Dutch)

Going to church on #stunday: The church of St. Catherine in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Built in 1861-67 after a design by Pierre Cuypers. #architecture #photography #travel #dacapotravels #eastcoastkin

#CDFriday Time for another episode of Bucky's 90's nostalgia. Campyness in music. Sometimes works. Usually it doesn't. And sometimes you just have to undergo an irresistible, all enveloping, glorious pinkplosion that leaves you covered in candyfloss and lace. ;-)

For today's Friday #scape day, have some farms and woods near Ommen, in the North of the Netherlands. #photography #travel

Carlo Vinci! (MOOSE ON THE LOOSE, 1952.)

Some nice quit details to wind down after a busy week. Not too quiet. A nice balance between ambience and action. #CDFriday

#adoorablethursday One of the entrances to the Molenstraatkerk in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Originally a Neogothic church from the late 19th century, it was mostly rebuilt in a modernist/Bossche School style after destruction in WWII. #architecture #photography #wederopbouw

Good afternoon mister balloon salesman. Do you have any balloons for congratulating someone with their newborn boy? Good afternoon mister customer. I believe I have just the thing.

After dinner relaxation soundtrack. ^_^ #vinyl #nowplaying

The Morning Hunt

The former American embassy in Den Haag, the Netherlands, photographed on a walk some time ago. The building dates from 1959 and was in use until 2018. #architecture #photography #brutalism #wederopbouw #wederopbouwwoensdag

Today is apparently #TextureTuesday. So have the concrete lining of a nearby tunnel. :-) #photography #abstract

Blue skies over Breda. #blueskymonday #architecture #photography #eastcoastkin

The Ventose Flat in the Dutch city of Eindhoven. Originally constructed as a cigar factory in the late 19th century it was rebuilt/renovated and changed into an apartment complex in 1929. #architecture #amsterdamseschool #photography

#clouds #blueskyartshow Walking around the town of Gorinchem on a day where the weather decided to show where all those old Dutch master painters got their inspiration from. #photography #travel #eastcoastkin

Have a lonely, rainy, foggy marshland for #scape day. Photographed a few years ago in the former clay pits near my home village. #photography #landscape #eastcoastkin

Philip Jeck and Faith Coloccia - Stardust. An odd but pretty album in an odd but pretty package. ^_^ #CDFriday

It's friday evening. Time for another wild wonderful night of.... ...drinking a nice cup of tea with the cat on my lap and Satie on the record player. ^_^

It's #CDFriday, and this episode of Zipper's 80's extravaganza us lit. :P

#adoorablethursday A nice specimen in wintry Oudenbosch, the Netherlands. #photography #eastcoastkin

Yourself, but as a cartoon. That's easy. :P

A row of houses from the Heuvel neighbourhood of Breda, the Netherlands. One of the first post-WWII expansions of the old city and notable for its houses in traditionalist Bossche School and Delftse School architectural styles. #architecture #photography #travel #wederopbouw #wederopbouwwoensdag

Another quick snapshot from a recent train journey. Amersfoort Central giving us a 1970 AD vision of what 2000 AD would look like. :-) #architecture #photography #travel

Good evening

#blueskymonday A group of elderly people hiking along the road to Lage Zwaluwe, the Netherlands, one summer day. It was about 35 degrees Celcius. And there I was thinking I was pretty insane for going on a bikeride in that weather. #travel #photography #eastcoastkin

Your mamma's so fat, she's got athlete's foothills!

If I knew I'd be stuck here for half an hour, I'd have brought a real camera. :-) (Naarden-Bussum railway station, the Netherlands) #architecture #photography

One three great album run coming right up. :-)
