After two month Winter, all-around only white and grey, this weekend we had the sun back.  It was frosty, and the sun was shining from a beautiful blue sky, a perfect day for making some pictures outside.

Our two older children were still sleeping, and our youngest was by her grandma. So I embraced the opportunity and snatched my camera, jumped into my “Antarctic-boots” and trudged into the snow.

Here are some of my “first sunny weekend of this year” impressions:

Through our little valley flows a little river called “Ilz”, at the moment it is frozen. Big parts thereof are a preserved areas. Word is that Goethe shall bathed in it….in the summertime, when it’s very hot we do it, too.

It looks like little feathers.

Wood anywhere you look.

A part of a very long hiking trail, you can walk for many days through unspoiled wild countryside.

For making this picture, I waited about fifteen minutes absolutely immoveable, till my legs has gone sleep, but it paid off.

One day later we made a walk, it was so cold and windy, but Mia (our youngest) really wanted to ride bike, afterwards her face was nearly frozen. But then we had dainty home-baked banana-blueberries muffins, and everybody defrosted.
