Mother nature is smiling again!

I promised some pictures showing the nice colors of autumn. Here they are! Yesterday, in the snowstorm, she was a bit sad, but today mother nature was smiling!

Perfect day for computer work! 


Autumn

Autumn is so beautiful. The dwarf birch is completely red and the willow is yellow. The change from green was very fast and now it is very much not summer anymore. Tomorrow, I'll try to take some more pictures showing the nice colors.

summer?!

So far much more have been done than planed. It feels very good to be ahead of schedule! I will upload a picture of me, myself and I today. I am enjoying the august-sun in Greenland. What the picture doesn't show is the 4 layers of wool and 1 layer fluffy down underneath that shell... :)
It is not a very warm August...
