Really nice fog this morning.

We had thick fog here this morning when I woke up and since it was fairly warm I guessed it wouldn’t stay for especially long, so I was in no hurry to go out for our morning walk. I realised after a while that it didn’t evaporate at all so out we went. Fog is […]

Still really nice weather :-)

Another really nice day here. Sunny all day long, a light and just enough cool wind and almost 25C (77F). Today I went away to the pool all by myself for the first time and all went just as it should. Someone retired today so I also had some ice cream cake πŸ™‚ I was […]

I can’t complain :-)

I’m really tired, not because work but because the dogs have woken me up pretty early in the morning, or perhaps it’s very late in the night? πŸ™‚ Today it was 3:45 am but for once I managed to make them come back in the bedroom to stay calm for 15 more minutes πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ […]

Another very pleasant day.

We went out on our morning walk quite early today, so that it wasn’t too warm to wear a fleece sweater when the sun reached me. We saw a couple of roe deer and the sound of the cuckoo birds echoed all over the area. The Monster decided that she would follow us on the […]

So much rain and I want more.

It has rained here since yesterday afternoon, I don’t have a rain meter but a friend of mine has gotten just more than an inch of rain. I now have two full water barrels and three on they way to become that and each can contain around 325 litres (around 84 gallons US). I think […]

We had company this morning.

Sunny morning and frost again but just below 0C (32F) so it didn’t feel that cold. The Cuckoo birds sound echoed all over the village and the bog. I heard it coming from north the first time and that means we’ll have another dry summer. The saying is that if one hear it from north […]

I didn’t expect to meet that on our walk.

Greylags on they way out to the bog. A beautiful sunrise and a cold morning, not as cold as yesterday but cold enough to kill the plants that had survived yesterday but was badly hit by the frost yesterday. My neighbours tomato plants said good buy and the one I had in the greenhouse Β that […]

So much colder than I thought it would be.

My neighbours keep finding the Monsters old collars in their garden, this one has been lost for at least six months πŸ™‚ The night was much colder that I thought it would be, it was -7C (19,4F) when we went out on our morning walk and I could see that my neighbour had had to […]

Nasty work but it needs to be done :-)

  Even though it barely reached 10C (50F) and the wind kept on blowing it wasn’t that bad today. The sun shone all day long and most of the wind came from west so most of it never reached my garden. I picked off around 25 small ticks from the dogs after the morning walk […]

Lets hope the rain actually comes.

  Warm night and a wonderful day, well it would have been wonderful if that wind that never stops had been calmer. The gusts were really strong and I guess it’s because the cold wind from the arctic is on the way. Still most parts in my garden was wind free and I, instead of […]

We’re having a really nice spring.

  Another cold night followed by a really nice and warm day. Sunshine all day long and we saw a lot of animals when we were out on our morning walk. We met our fox and once again I was too slow to get a photo, it really should know by now that it has […]
