Dreaming with the wind

I live in this small city with a population of about 20,000 that hardly anyone has ever heard of. But now we have this horticultural show, which will run for another two months. They worked on it for way more than a year, not only preparing the actual premises but beautifying the entire city centre. We have quite a lot of tourists now, and I'm sure they are not disappointed by what they find. The whole project all turned out great, and I hope that it will leave a lasting mark on my city long after the actual show has closed down.

Naturally I tried to capture a few impressions:

This year, for the first time, we managed to have proper sunflowers in our garden. So I took my camera to get a few sunny impressions on a not so sunny day.

Where there's photos there has to be cats.

What's the first thing I do when there's a thunderstorm like yesterday night? I squeee and grab my camera. *g*

I also have a few new pics of my girls:

Just some photos I wanted to share.

I'm kind of proud of these two. I spent half the night at my window trying to catch them:

And some I took a few days ago in our garden:

Ich mag Schnee. Wirklich. Wenn es nach mir geht, kann es davon kaum genug geben. Im Winter. Aber jetzt haben wir März und ich hatte mir auf Schneeglöckchen und Spaziergänge durch ein Blütenmeer und Wintermantel wegräumen und das Fenster den ganze Nachmittag auflassen, damit der Wind durch mein Zimmer toben kann, und mit den Katzen im Garten spielen gefreut. Nur sieht der Garten momentan so aus:





Im Dezember oder Januar hätte das bei mir Begeisterungsstürme ausgelöst. Ich finde zwar jetzt auch, dass es toll aussieht, aber ich hätte trotzdem ganz gerne Frühling.
