Sunshine and showers

Today has been very changeable, with sun, rain, thunder and gusty winds. Ali got a super picture while she was down in the valley this afternoon.

Kathleen got another.

And so did Manuela while she was at work at Männlichen.

It’s September, and that means it’s the hunting season. Shooting is very popular in Switzerland, and hunters are a common sight.

Hunting season means lots of lovely game in our local restaurants. We’ll be stocking up with rich venison stew for the winter.

Nice day, nice run

I was up early for my run this morning, and what a run it was. In dry and cool weather I ran all the way to the hydro station at Stechelberg and back again, a distance of just over 12 kilometres.

This afternoon we did a circuit of the village via Wengwald.

It’s beginning to feel quite autumnal, and the village is much quieter than it was last month. How long until the first snow?
