This year I am trying to catch a bee swarm because I lost all of my swarms in the last two years. I have put a complete hive into the tree beside the field as I don’t have other ones 🙂

The former owner covered the ancient earth walls of our house with concrete which is why the base of the walls are constantly pulling water up to 1.2 m high and are starting to deteriorate. Now they have to be repaired…

That is something that should have been avoided from the start but there was a time when everybody thought that concrete is more stable… only that these walls cannot breathe anymore like this.

My dog is not allowed into the house. As it is summer and the doors are mostly open, he is trying to see how far he can come in before I say something…

I had a couple of technical problems so that I couldn’t post from my phone anymore but it seems to be working again.

So here some impressions…

Just visiting Clermont-Ferrand which is one of the oldest cities in France.

Home made sourdough baguette is simply delicious, especially when I get the crust right.
  

We have man high thistles in the valley in our forest. It looks a bit like fairy land.
