Foraging Time
Wild Weeds
The Garden Show is still coming here, but I have been buuuuuussy, and toddling about hither and yon.
But in a tribute to Spring around the corner, we have started gathering and eating greens from our area in our salads again. Spring tonic. Highly recommended, if you have a clean area. Bärlauch (which I think you call wild garlic), Dandelions, and various small greens and flowers.

Garden ShowTime
In Zürich
Forsythia and daffodils are blooming here all over now.
Today we went to the annual garden show. My pictures haven’t up loaded yet, and it’s too late to wait for them, but probably tomorrow I can share some. For now, a couple from a flower shop in the Old Town.

Spring is Springing
Colors Coming
We are hoping hard that the trees don’t flower yet. We want fruit this year!
But snowbells are quite welcome.

Happy March
New Month, New Opportunities
Winter flowers
Vinca minor, a spring flower, much too early, from an unseasonably warm February.
Snow drops, a winter flower.
A few weeks too early for Forsythia.
And the rhubarb is pushing hard.

Blessed Lenten Season
Somber Time
With as many chairs as you could want.
Commercial kitchen, freezers, etc.
Folk art furnishings
A marvelous ballroom with great acoustics
With a painted ceiling - one of only two left in the canton.
Depicting the cantonal folk and their culture
And flora and fauna
And original log structure attics
Where the community still meets for its festivities.
On this day- my brother’s birthday- my father died four years ago, a blessed end, with much of his family around, just before lockdowns hit. It was 12:20, 20-02-2020 (or 02-20-2020 in American numeration of dates). I was there by video. Last week his brother died, 95 years old, also a blessed end with family around and at peace and ready for heaven. May we all pray for such an end, with a Christian family as our legacy.
As life goes on.
This past weekend some of us went to look at a property for sale. A very old, furnished restaurant/house, rambling all over the place in Appenzell. Anybody interested in cheap rent and lots of room for your business?

A piece of history.
