Icy icy babe*
Ice is everywhere since several weeks. Transparent, stopping the flow of water like it would stop the time; Dangerous, as a slippery layer on a dark poach on the road, or hiding below the fresh and crunchy snow; Glittering when the icy flakes fall like millions of white confettis; Fairy, enchanting the road that IContinue reading “Icy icy babe*”
Long run
It has been a while since I made a long run, lets say, longer than 6 km. First I was injured, then quarantining, injured again… then winter came, the real winter, the one that makes you stay in the warm bed in the morning and that I didn’t experience, yet. With snow, ice, and storms.Continue reading “Long run”
Morning thoughts
Good morning! Good morning to the lovers that wake up after Valentine’s night; good morning Phantom the cat who seems to be cosy today – strangely not bothering me for his breakfast; good morning frozen lake – hope you stay so until we receive our ice skates!; good morning Monday, please begin slowly…; good morningContinue reading “Morning thoughts”
Frozen lake
Evening walk. I thought I could climb again on top on that mountain. As I arrived at the beginning of the trail the snow was quite high and crusty, the sun was getting down, and the temperature was already very cold and decreasing… Walking was difficult, even helped by the prints of two pairs ofContinue reading “Frozen lake”
Walking on a cupcake
Despite the bad weather of this winter, I have tried to hike as often as possible, and I shall say my regular ascension to the top of the closest mountain has always been an experience: although I know the path almost by heart, the trail is each time so different that I am always excitedContinue reading “Walking on a cupcake”
After the storm
There was a big storm yesterday. It was like a dance in 4 acts: first the snow was falling slowly, but surely, accumulating in a soft white powder and shaping a creamy landscape in the garden. As the day went by and the night fall, the wind entered into the dance beginning with a slowContinue reading “After the storm”
Guten Rutsch! *
Happy 2021! How strange: it must have been the most expected new year, yet the least celebrated. Restaurant closed, lockdowns and social distancing have been killing the joyfulness and fun of this festive season. Meanwhile, we, 3 humans and a cat, try to find our rhythm in Maine. Still missing our dad and husband inContinue reading “Guten Rutsch! *”
A long story short
In short, the house is alive. Two teens and a cat have moved in Maine with me 10 days before 2021. I was busy enjoying each of the next minutes with them, but have already tons of pictures to share here soon. I hope they will adapt well the new environment. For now everything isContinue reading “A long story short”
Good morning!
I woke up this morning with a fine and delicate layer of snow flakes on the deck. The atmosphere is fresh and clear, and I take time to breath, feel the day and take a snapshot of the wonder with my phone. I can’t believe it is already Christmas time, where has this year been?Continue reading “Good morning!”
