The reward for getting up at 5.30 and leaving home before 6 am for the weekly Sunday morning adventure walkies. Most of the times it’s a very happy dog but sometimes you get a rare treat from mother nature herself.
Last night it started to snow again but I’m sure this will be the last of it. Coming Monday we’ll get temps around 14°C and 6°C during the night. So just rain from now on.
There is this tiny overgrown trail behind the university. It’s a bit like you walk between two worlds. On the one side the buildings of the university and the other side the nature preserve. The university tries to block this path but all the blocks are being refused. The public is using that path since more than 10 years, so it’s what we call “Gewohnheitsrecht” (roughly translates to law of habit).
Usually this field is covered my 8 feet tall reed. Last fall they cut it all down for whatever reason (this is nature preserve, everything has to remain untouched) but I’m sure it will all be back soon. After all it’s home to a lot of creatures, including rare birds and deer.
Yesterdays snow lasted till noon, then all the beauty was gone. I know, a lot of people from the US will probably tell me I lost all my marbles, but I really would love lots of snow during the entire winter. Maybe you guys just send it my way next winter. Have a pawtastic day, stay safe and warm.
