Julia and Nike are hardly gone, and I already look forward to next thursday, when I can go and get them again. But at the same time I look forward to the coming three days, when I can be put my throttle on full speed and do lots of must be done's. And lots of like to do's.

As I thought, the weather was very springtimelike, last monday, so I did wash and wax the car, as planned. And not only the car, even tractor got a wash and a little polish.

And just for the fun of it, Emil gave his darling a small "facelift" :-)

Tuesday was real nasty, so I went to fill up the foodstorages, and did some painting, washing and cleaning and oter boring things. No!- I like painting! That's something you can admire for a looooong time.
We had a little bit of snow again, tuesday, and sun on wednesday so I just HAD TO let the white one run to Vilsalpsee in the sun in the fresh snow at lunch time. A dream!!!! It was soooo beautyful and it's so great to be carried around by Hombre, the dog racing along. I rode bareback, that's warmer. WOW! To be honest I went for a good ride on monday too, over pastures in the sun...... WOW. I really like this time of year; hardly any people around, no fenced cattle, you can ride over almost all the fields.... With a good effort ( very good effort) you could imagine you would ride over the prairie :-) It is indeed very beatyful in Tannheimer Tal, but a little bit crowded. Don't misunderstand me, please, I don't complain. Got an e-mail from a friend of mine today, living in Ruhrgebiet, Germany. She wrote, she needed 1,5 hours to go to work. And to go home, the same time. I guess that's crowded! And she can't even drink the pipewater. I can drink pipe water, if I want to, but right now I enjoy a glass of wine. Maybe that's why I slipped off the tema a bit??
Well, the kids are gone. Again.  We had a nice weekend, as always. Did some gardening...


As it was Emil birthday on Saturday, I decided to cook something special: Wild boar (-pig, -pork??? At least wild-!). Mother would have been proud of me :-)))) I wouldn't dare to say that often, but this time - YES! Cooked it in red wine and juniper, as Mamma taught me to :-) And now I try to get rid of the leftover wine....
(...... when I try to get rid of the leftoverwhisky, from the whiskycake I baked, I will better NOT write!)
