Magical Land

A week ago today, my eyes had this total magical view

I could not wait to get out of bed to take pictures. If you could have seen what I saw that morning…..

Believe me is breathtaking. The pictures don’t do justice to this. It stayed for two full days…

Totally BEAUTIFUL.

The trees and bushes where covered with “HAIRS” of about 1″ long. The size of the frost that formed depended on how much water vapor was available to feed the ice crystals as they grow. I can honesty say I have never seen anything like it. Its so magical!

There is this tingle I had in me to just stay outside and enjoy every singe moment of this Magical Land and right here in my Garden you could say… Happiness.

Winter Wonderland

How beautiful is it to walk in the country with the snow covered fields all around you.

Sure it is cold and burr the wind is blowing lots too. Oh my Goshhhh,I could not believe my luck today, LOL.

I tell you, just one picture into the walk my camera told me the the card is full!! Oh no… really ?!

Gurr mittens off and deleting quickly some of the picture from way long ago…

All was set to take in the winter Wonderland in pictures once again.

Hope you will approve of them as much as I had fun falling into the snow and getting the camera and myself covered in snow too….Yes the ground was uneven as most county sites are and the snow hides it all. But that makes it so much more special to take the fun and special pictures. Most of all Memories to have.

Winter Wonderland In The Country

Look what has arrived here in the beautiful Ontario. I love the sunshine in the winter too.

It has been a beautiful October and yes November too. With only 2 weeks ago of +20 temperatures. How it can change so fast.. But look at how pretty this white stuff can be too.

Indian Summer

2014-10-27 16.37.26Well truly I prefer to see them on the tree….but the time is here again and we need to get ready for the winter.

I know, I should be raking all these leaves up….but it looks so nice right now. A view more days as the trees in all the neighbour backyards are just starting to lose the leaves.2014-10-26 12.38.15

Perhaps tomorrow I will go and take my rake in my hands.

As to soon this will all be white with frost and yes snow. Not sure I am looking forward to this yet. 2014-10-26 12.37.55

2014-10-27 16.37.00Lieber sehen ich die Blätter an den Bäumen …. aber die Zeit ist wieder da, und wir müssen aufreumen da der Winter schon bald vor der Tür sein wird.

Ich weiß, ich sollte all diese Blätter rechen gehen…. aber es sieht so schön aus im Moment. Noch ein paar Tage denke ich, da die Bäume in allen Nachbarhinterhöfen erst die Blätter verlieren.

Vielleicht werde ich morgen den Rechen  in meinen Händen nehmen.

Wie bald wird dies alles weiß mit Frost und Schnee ja sein. Im Moment gefällt es mir aber besse so.

Stein in Switzerland / Bad-Säckingen in Germany

Another fun day in Switzerland…well also Germany.  On a sunny warm day my mom, my daughter and I drove to “Stein Säckingen” only 20 minutes from Möhlin.  Stein is a municipality in the district of Frick in the canton of Aargau in Switzerland.   http://www.gemeinde-stein.ch/de/portrait/geschichtestein/

 The Village “Stein” in Switzerland lies across the Rhein River from  “Bad-Säckingen”  in  Germany, state of  Baden-Württemberg.   Two bridges link the two city, one vehicular (Fridolinsbrücke) and the other, the Holzbrücke pedestrian bridge.

Very pictures and I find it fantastic to be able to still have these old bridges in place.  But in Europe  this is not as rare to see.  Things have been different and perhaps we can call this old bridge a luxury to be able to still have to show our children and walk the walk across the Rhein River…

Ein weiterer schöner Tag in der Schweiz ….. ja auch Deutschland.  An einem sonnigen warmen Tag meine Mutter, meine Tochter und ich fuhren nach Stein Säckingen. Etwa 20 Minuten von Möhlin entfernt.

Stein ist eine Gemeinde im Bezirk Frick im Kanton Aargau in der Schweiz.

 

   “Stein” in der Schweiz liegt über den Rhein von Bad Säckingen, im Deutschen Bundesland Baden-Württemberg.  Zwei Brücken verbinden die beiden Stätte, eine Fahrzeug-(Fridolinsbrücke) und die andere, die Holzbrücke Fußgängerbrücke.  

 Ich finde es fantastisch  noch so eine alten Brücken vorhanden zu haben.  Doch in Europe sieht man dass schon noch öfters.

 Ja wir hat einmal andere Zeiten und vielleicht können wir  so eine alte Brücke ein Luxus nennen diese unseren Kinder  zeigen zu können  und zu Fuß den Rhein zu über queren…

A Day To Remember

Snowing on Mother’s Day wow look at this snow…burrr cold again. 

After we had already so many gorgeous days.  What is this weather doing this year? 

Es schneit hier am Muttertag….burrrr so kalt wieder.

Nach all den wunderschön warmen Tagen die wir schon hatten .  Was macht auch das Wetter wieder?

 

 

Now we are on our way to Hamilton and the clouds are still heavy but as you can see on the way home it is getting sunnier again so this we all know will not last long …as we are in Spring…..and nicer days will be around the corner again.

Nun sind wir auf dem Weg nach Hamilton die Wolken sind immer noch schwer. Doch als der Tag zu ging kam die Sonne heraus.  Wir sind ja im Frühling und die schönen Tage sind um die Ecken.

Well the day  had many surprises some very nice once that a lot of time, thoughts and hand crafting went into it.

Ohhh and not to forget with a lot of  LOVE for Mom. 

 Thank You with all my heart and love for you ……

Auch hatte der Tag viele schöne Überraschungen

 die mit viel Lieb, Überlegung, Gedenken und auch von Hand hergestellt wurden. 

Von meinem Herzen Lieben Dank and Euch I love you too….
