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 that […]
My neighbours keep finding the Monsters old collars in their garden, this one has been lost for at least six months 🙂 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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Another summer warm day here but with an annoying wind blowing all the time, ok it is warm but the wind never seem to calm down any more. We’ll have one more nice day before the arctic winds return again. This time it looks as at least the nights will be warmer so they […]
The forest owner cut down three birch trees around the old root cellar. My neighbours will now have evening sun but I’ve seen them every day for 26 years so it looks so empty now. I had written a really long post and just had to leave the computer for a few minutes and during […]
Just as cold this morning as it was yesterday, -6C (21,2F) and that was one night too many for the annuals I put in the greenhouse to see how well they would do if the night would be as cold as that. Still a bitterly cold arctic wind blowing so it didn’t feel as […]
Yesterday was horrid, nasty cold and strong winds directly from the arctic and cloudy almost all day. Not even the dogs wanted to be outside for more than a few minutes at a time. I had turned off the radiator in my bedroom so I woke up freezing in the middle of the night […]
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 […]
We have a saying here that when the birch leafs are as big as mouse ears it’s time to cut the roses. So yesterday morning I woke up pretty early and was preparing for going to my health center. I chose that place long ago since it was close to my work place, from here […]
A little Robin was kind enough to sit still long enough in the sunshine for me to get a photo of it. I must admit that I didn’t think it was as cold as it was when I followed the dogs outside when we had woken up, -6C (21,2F). I guess that there was no […]
The last tomatoes from last summer. After a really cold night warm air flowed in so we had some morning mist here this morning. I was a bit too tired to have a that early morning walk with the dogs so I missed most of it. It stayed chilly for quite some time but since […]
