WOW! The world is somehow getting smaller in this thread.   :D   Amazing, i hoped some of you might know my town or were here but id never have thought of so many...

Rick,
the office i work for is right in the niddel between Augsburg and Neu-Ulm, so i know these places qite well, too.

Kent,
my primary school was right next to the Hotel Spitzweg (the big orange building iy you remember).

gobblegrunter,
thanks for the offer. When i go to America it seems like id have to do a "Tradganger-round-Tour". Love that thought!  

Axel,

Yes, I do remember your primary school.  I just looked at the photos from our last trip to refresh my memory.  Christmas is such a magical time where you live.  I wish we were there.

Cheers,

Kent

Axel, been there many times! Great place, my family and I spent 12 years in Germany! We really miss the Bamburg area and our many Christmas's in the Black Forest! Hope to get back there one of these days! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your family!!

Axel,   We were in your city a long time ago for a 3-day trip.  Stayed at a very nice b&b.  Your city is amazing, like stepping back in time.  You are very lucky to call such a borgeous place home.  Thank you for your kind offer.

I have a very good friend who spends his summers here and returns to Germany every winter and I keep telling myself I will one day go with him for a visit. This invitation makes it even more likely. His name is Hubert and his business is   www.fischhof.de.  Is this anywhere near you?  Bob

Mein Bruder war in Heidelberg auf einem US Army Base geboren. Ich habe nur nach  Japan und Korea, aber würde gerne nach Deutschland zum Oktoberfest zu gehen. Hoffentlich im kommenden Jahr die Frau, und ich kann es ..

Hope Mein Deutsch ist OK zu verstehen.

I know that I will never make that trip money reasons and at 60 I hate to travel in airplanes and all the sercuity. However, I do appreciate your offer and hope some Tradganger does contact you. If you ever get to Ohio you can stay with me.

Back at you Axel. Much obliged. Never know when things may work out. b

Canadabowyer,
thats about 400km from my home.

mysticguido,
Of course, youre German is easy understandable. Ahh, the Oktoberfest, most expensive beer in Bavaria     have never been there myself but a friend living in Munich.

BTW. Hows that screw on light working for ya?

Hi Tradgangers,

I'm in as well, super idea "Saumensch", if you are in Rothenburg already, perhaps you would like to visit Munich, or Garmisch-Partenkirchen as well. Just email me, you and your famillies will always be welcome! Although no bowhunting possibilities, there are lots of 3D parcours to visit, and of course a lot more to see. In the evenings we'll sit in my garden, have some beers and a barbecue and you will have to tell all your hunting stories.

Hope to see you soon!

Bernd

Great gesture German friends.

Of course, our italian friends are welcome as well!!
But I think, I'd rather visit you. I still remember your photos of spring in italy!

Best wishes,

Bernd

Bernd,the Mattlehorn is beautiful also seen from the South,and some wild boars can fall under your arrows,plus we still have a trade to complete!!!

Axel,

I was in Dresden last summer.  The Zwinger is a wonder!  I hope to go visit the family homestead near Rosenheim in the next couple of years.  Please be in touch if you are coming to the US!

Bob

Axel:  I have my ancestral home in Fellbach.  We are planning on going back again for the Pfander family reunion and October fest in 2011.  Doing a 3E would be great.  I'll bring my own bow as I hope to hunt with Caccatori on the front end or the back.

Works Great, just need to take it hunting if I can find a place close

Man, I have been to a few places in the world. Lived in Russia for a bit of time and enjoyed it -- kinda sorta. Germany is on my list s a gotta go to. My Sister has been in Italy for a yr or so with her husband (military) and made several trips up to Germany and she just loves it. Her and her husband both have said how pretty a country it is and how cool the folks are. She sends me alot of meats and breads from there. NO BEER??????
Love to take you up on the offer and maybe someday in the near future I will be able to! it is ver generous of you - cool to bring the bow with me for some stump roving.
