Sunny and nice morning again today but after that a chilly wind has arrived and I guess it’s the same we’ll have tomorrow but then with storm strength in the gusts. I’ve now done what I can to secure it with 12 new tent pegs for green houses and a few other things. I’ve blocked the door with an old broken golf club π No I’ve never played golf but I once bought a golf bag on an auction just in case I ever would be insane enough to start playing golf π π π




There was some morning mist when we went out on our morning walk but we walked out to the bog and this time no fog had hidden in there π We might have had a wolf nearby because both dogs seemed to be uncomfortable being out there. Could also have been moose since the dogs don’t like them either. Β Animals were moving around in the forest but by the sound of it I think that mostly were deer or wild hogs.




I also drove to the grocery store today, normally I would have waited until tomorrow but driving around in a storm on top of a mountain is never a good idea π π It was unusually calm in the town, FalkΓΆping on Fridays are usually chaotic when it comes to traffic. It’s just a tiny town but the traffic is just as bad as it is in a big city π π Β Also very few seems to know any of the traffic rules we have in this country so no matter how well one drives there’s always a lot of honking from other car drivers π π π Today there wasn’t any traffic at all so I could just as well have backed the car all the way in the village and no one would have noticed π π π




It is time to make a pot of tea and I’ll have some ice cream at the same time. The strong winds will arrive some time in the early morning and will be as worst at around 9 am till 2 pm so I’ll be glued to the windows until it starts to calm down. We might also have up to 50 mm (two inches) of rain falling so cross Your fingers and hold Your thumbs for good luck and that the green house doesn’t fly away π π




Have a great day!




Iβm definitely crossing my fingers and holding my thumbs that your green house will get through the storm. Your Autumn is much further along than mine! The colors and mist are lovely.

Hi Goodport!
So far so good π
I’ve been outside checking it several times now and it seems to be sheltered by the vegetation still left by the fence but also because my garden is sloping slightly so the worst wind seems to only hit the roof. Still long time till it is over.
Still it has so far moved on slightly slower than normal, but this storm might change that, who knows how many leafs will be left π

lovely, as my late Mom would say: so normal. Like ointment on the open sore of today’s politics

Hi Julie!
I’m glad You like it π
It is rare that anything happens here to be honest, the occasional wolf pass by and sometimes the cows escape from the pastures π π

Good luck with the storm! You certainly put a lot of tie downs, and that’s good. The community garden greenhouse we have has bolts driven into the pavement ( it’s in a parking lot) so it stays well secured.
Has the Monsterkitten returned?
Cheers!

Hi Carol!
So far so good but it’s just in the beginning of it all. I’ve done what I can do and been outside to check it several times π
I’m not a fan of concrete or asphalt but it would have helped to secure the greenhouse π π π
Yes she has but she want outside this morning and now she’s caught in heavy rain π

Hope that the storm is not too bad, Christer, and that the greenhouse remains upright. We really could use a good rainfall here, so itβs too nad you canβt send some all the way to Nashua, NH.

Hi Beatrice!
Norway is hit badly so this is nothing in comparison.
So far so good but it’s early on yet but at the moment it looks good.
I really want to help You with the rain but this is actually two storms combined to one and they actually came from You π π
