<p class=just>In this section, we try to provide a glimpse of the area we live in.
Note our use of the word "glimpse" -- as in "visual"! Our emphasis
is definitely on images. Other web sites and guide books already provide ample text notes
on the places covered in this section. Do you have a favorite spot you would like to see
included? <a href="mailto:daniel@kiechle.com?Subject=Request&Body=">Send us a request!</a></p><br>
