Bridges and Paths

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.

Cee’s B&W Photo Challenge: Outdoor – Walks or Roads

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.

CFFC: Letter X

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Letter X – X needs to be anywhere in the word or shaped like the letter X

For Cee’s challenge this week – I go for shape. A mountain meadow in Switzerland – flowers and steep hills. There is need for an X- fence.

 

Only the big ones left…

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!

 

 

 

A Work in Progress

Day two – and my plants are feeling a little bit better – a work in progress! Sometimes the plants will not let me help…then I have to force them out out of their protective shell…

When the roots are this big and there is no soil left – there is no other choice but to break the urn.

Then there are always other positive surprises – this Ficus had lost almost all his leaves during winter – but look what the returning light can do!
