Today, in the Jura of Switzerland

April 19, 2009

I saw… Many cats enjoying the day in the fields. Spring buds covering trees and bushes. Young horses that wanted to say hello. Lovely Jura farms spread out before me. Daffodils growing wild in fields. Tree tops as we walked in the forest. Gendarme bugs playing choo choo (as in a train) according to my [...]

Our nightly walk in photos

March 14, 2009

It is getting warmer even if we are still buried in snow. The snow is wetter and heavy. I think it may be slowly melting all the way through. While I don’t think it will melt away in a few days, I do think that most of the snow will be gone in a month [...]

Sunday walk in the snow

March 9, 2009

Yesterday, we decided that we were tired of not being able to take our Sunday walks because of all the snow. We went walking in spite of the Franches-montagnes being buried in snow for over four months. It turned out that the snow wasn’t hard to walk on even in the forest as long as [...]

Walking off the Thanksgiving meal

December 1, 2008

The snow was beautiful with ripples blown into it from the wind. Hill where children sled. We are planning on bringing our children here with their sleds soon. The camera froze (pun intended) while I took this shot. I like how it came out. My children wading, rolling and playing in the snow.

Friday morning walk

October 24, 2008

I didn’t feel well last night and went to bed early. After I slipped into my bed and hugged my pillow I soon fell fast asleep. This morning, I woke easily. The light is warm and sweet making everything brighter. I feel rested and strong. I want to scream out Happy Glorious Friday! [...]

Les Breuleux to Tramelan by foot

September 29, 2008

Sunday, we walked from Les Breuleux to Tramelan buying our train tickets one way each direction. We do it this way because we never know where we will end up. A general plan is laid out and then we decide where to end based on how we (the children mostly) feel. I recommend doing it [...]
