More from Åsum and the softly winding path. To get to the church, there is an old stone bridge, but traffic was no longer allowed there. Maybe due to the heavy rains we have had. Trees can no longer find solid ground for their roots, and consequently they fall to the ground. Some fall into the river and become natural bridges.
Outdoor – Walks or Roads for Cee’s challenge. Please join in the fun!
Driving a (to me) new road, I tried the GPS we got from a friend this Christmas – I am old fashioned…never had one before – and it lead me to a dead end street. The road was closed. At first I was disappointed…but, looking out of the window on my left hand side, I saw an iron fence, and behind that, a path twisting and winding through a beautiful landscape. Of course I had to walk that path – and Totti did not say no.
Having accidentally found this lovely hiking path, I plan to return in spring (if I can find my way back to this spot…) – would love to see the beeches green and the water merrily sing along with the birds.
Ailsa, you once invited me to participate in your Travel theme – and I have, almost every week, for several years. Your theme will be greatly missed, but I hope we will keep You!
My interpretation became a long one…almost every picture will have an explanation as to why they represent Adventure. Not that I think the explanation is needed – but still.
Thank you for all these years of hosting! Life is the greatest Adventure.
Beloved – My Family
And – the forest in spring, when the beech trees explodes in light shades of green.
So – I have finished re-potting most of my plants. Only the big ones left…
I even tried putting some of my succulents in glass jars – seems that is going to be popular again. Photographing through the glass gives me a tiny – world – feeling. A bit distorted, but I guess all our worlds are.
It is already dark, but I sit in my chair and feel good about having done this much in three days. Now to the cleaning up…not my favorite thing, but that has to be done.
Good night to you all – with a photo from the lovely walk yesterday. Cheers!
This morning the sun decided to shine from a blue sky – and I decided to start re-potting my plants. Everything is much easier and much more fun with the sun shining in.
Every year around February I take on this task, which usually lasts for three to five days including window cleaning ( so I can see my little friends better…) and the whole house.
After lunch, Totti says he wants a long walk – and the weather is still lovely – so…
Two hours out, then the sun is fading, and we are heading homewards. All happy for this beautiful day – and Totti had his many rolls in the grass, and water splashing as much as he liked…
Two stomachs hungry for dinner now!
Paula, at Lost in Translation, always surprises with new, inspiring tasks. This time I am not sure if I am doing what she is asking for…but I will give ”Once over” a try.
This old tree has been my friend for many years. I have passed by him almost every day, walking in the forest. Every season I admired his clothing and majestic appearance – so I have got many, many photos of him.
Last year he began to seriously decline, and just before Christmas, I realized he had finally given in. The youngest branches sticks out to the right from the top, and during summer, they lost their leaves. So, I knew what was coming. I am grateful for all these years and all the photos of him – he has been standing there since my childhood days.
Most photos this month were from the Galapagos Islands and our beautiful ship – Cachalote – Here are some of my favorites. In the header, me and my lovely mockingbird!
Volcanic Islands all of them – and here at Sullivan Bay – strikingly beautiful.
My absolute favorites on this trip were the iguanas – especially the land iguanas. We were so lucky to find an iguana up in the cacti – they love eating them, but rarely have any success in climbing them.
I would not mind going back one day – to see the other islands as well. Each island has its own specific flora and fauna. Mostly untouched by humans – and therefore, animal kingdoms.
