• A morning wog

    September 3, 2024 in Austria ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    Bill usually wakes up early and goes out to enjoy a walk/jog or wog. First off, it’s about 65 degrees and low humidity (compared to Florida). It’s also very quiet and peaceful.
    Yesterday we got about 30 minutes of rain so the grass was less crunchy, ground a bit softer. Just a really pleasant place to be.
    The route is just about 4km, a little more with some side trips. It goes past the disc golf course Gabi built. She was a high ranking amateur in Austria and one of the attractions for their BNB was the course. Up through the woods where the rabbits and marmots move faster than my reactions can catch them on camera. I get to the next farm (Hinterhinterburg or behind, behind the mountain) to find wood piles. Most of the farms here warm everything with wood, whether in fireplace, furnace or outdoor pit. I think little Johnny has a bit of chopping to do before this winter.
    Move past the combines threshing the cattle corn, and take a right at the Hinterburg (behind the mountain) volunteer fire station. Stop for a view of the deep blue sky by St Florian, then back up the hill to Larry and Gabi’s farm in Knollnhof or Hill farm. A beautiful place to have some relaxing and low effort days.
