Happy Thanksgiving!
Or as the Swiss call it, "just another Thursday in November". 😁
(but they DO "celebrate" Black Friday!)
Today I've got another camera roll poem from a photo I took recently on walk in my neighborhood. It is especially timely as we are experiencing a housing crunch. According to the Zuger Zeitung newspaper,
"The vacancy rate for apartments in the canton of Zug is one of the lowest in Switzerland, at just 0.42%."
I am very thankful for our apartment.
And I am thankful that Zug at least offers affordable housing options for its tiniest resident.🐞

Fun poem Bridget and what a wonderful pic too—Wow "1000+ Bedroom–impressive! Glad to hear you are safe with your apartment! Guess the US isn't the only country engaging in the madness of Black Friday… Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle! I find these towers so cool. In addition to real estate, retail is alive and well here, on Black Friday and every other day. Happy belated Thanksgiving! :)
DeleteIt's rather crazy here, too, Bridget. I love that you found something available for so many & the HVAC system is included! Happy Thanksgiving, no matter where!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! Real estate is such a fickle industry, even for critters. Hope you are enjoying quality time with your family. :)
DeleteBridget--that listing I mean poem is so spot on I was actually fooled--I thought someone had posted that and that your poem would follow! Perfect beautiful wonderful--may humans find their way to such integrity and abundance.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heidi! Maybe I missed my calling for writing real estate ads - ha! I just love that our city invests in these tiny critters...and the benefits they provide for everyone. Yes, if humans could only find their way... :)
DeleteThat's so neat! Did you build that habitat? I now want one in my backyard. What a fun holiday to celebrate with international friends. I hope that the gratitude and goodwill at your table spreads far and wide.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! No, the city of Zug put these towers up in several neighborhood around town. I'm happy to have one close by. I look forward to spreading my gratitude (and waistband) with our local friends. :)
DeleteThat's the home the ladybug larva in my fennel needs!
ReplyDeleteYes, Mary Lee, this is exactly where that little lady(bug) would thrive. I'm thankful for your comment. :)
DeleteBridget, I love your enthusiastic nature. Your poem is marvelous based on the photo and your creativity. Like Heidi, I was fooled at the beginning. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carol! Enthusiasm is what keeps me going. Sorry to mislead, I just thought it'd be fun to help get the word out about this neighborhood treasure. Hope your holiday weekend is filled with family and fun! :)
DeleteOh my! This is a perfect home for all manner of wildlife. Makes me want to have my husband build one for our yard on the bayou in south Louisiana. We do have our wood duck apartment which will be open for rent in February.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Margaret! It would be great addition to your backyard neighborhood. Your wood duck's would be appreciative neighbors I'm sure. :)
DeleteBridget, I love this! We have written poems in the form of classified ads before, but I love this longer style work. It goes beautifully with your photo. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tricia! Classified ad poetry is an intriguing idea. Hmm... :)
DeleteThis is so fun, Bridget! I love your sales pitch, "Don't wait . . . as winter is coming." I was ready to buy then I realized I wouldn't fit in.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Fitting in is always the hardest part...am I right? ;)
DeleteHow I would love to sit outside the many doors of this apartment and get to know its residents!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Patricia! I plan to drop by for visits in the spring to see what's buzzing...maybe there'll be a follow up poem? :)
DeleteWow, I guess that would be high density living. I love that photo! Fun poetry advertisement for this living space. This made me smile: "hogs (hedge variety only!)"
ReplyDeleteThanks, Denise! We have hedgies all over the neighborhood. A safe haven for them is important as they are not very bright. ;)
Deleteha ha -- this made me laugh! thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Liz! I love when I can make someone laugh. :)
