In the beginning ...

In the beginning the land was desolate and empty . Named ``slikken en schorren ``. Than they start to reclaim the land by building dikes. And after a long while they planted Tulip bulbs.

So lovely and open looking and I like your description.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It's just amazing to me that anyone thought of doing that and then that because of those dikes yesterday's picture become possible! I like the sweeping open feeling of the land and sky here. And of course your description!

I thought you were quoting from Genesis. It does look something like that. Beautiful shot and what a great job your ancestors did.

Such beautiful things from desolation!

[Nina Ganci]

wow! Never thought of it that way, did not realize that the reclaimed land was beach sand! Holland is amazing to have achieved this and you have ever reason to be proud
