After a sweltering week, we went to a higher elevation, slightly more agreeable in temperatures. We had church and dinner, then went for a walk in scenery.
Somebody brought dinner, made the day before
In the mountain forest
Complete with finger

For the views
Local fauna
All summer cattle, calves, swine, and goats graze up here to their hearts content.
They are brought down in the fall in a flowery and costumed grand march.
The tourists get the local brew: apple
An old-timer car meet-up was just dispersing.

That building is a Käserei (cheese making), so we went to see it.
No more huge copper pots over an open fire in a little log house.
Choices
And more ripening
With things for the visitors
Then the walk back, picking wild strawberries. The wild blueberries in the moorlands are just starting to ripen.
Welcome shade
And back to Maria’s chalet for dessert: apricot and strawberry crumble with whipped cream and currents.
So started the week.
