Winter Wonder Storm!



This weekend Dennis and I had Kaja and Marius with us to my cabin in Son. It's been storming here for days and the water is extremely high. We couldn't walk along the beach without being hit by the huge waves or almost being blown into the water by the strong winds. 

 If it hadn't been for Gus we would have stayed inside all weekend but the little guy has so much energy so we have been walking a lot in the woods.


Can you please stop taking pictures and just throw that stick? Please!?

The water was almost 2 meters higher than normal




The dark skies and rough sea made the mood very special on Sunday when the sun came for a visit.

 Gus was really happy that he could finally play at the beach for a little while


 Until we found refuge in the forest on our way back.

While I'm waiting for the snow

I'm enjoying the magical light created by the long rays of the much too early setting sun


The last few flowers still in bloom



 My darling Gus
 Warm hats and sunglasses
 The surprisingly springlike colors in our garden
 the not yet fallen evidence of summer
 and the sharklike eye of my neighbors car

It's Simply Gustastic

I feel it's been awhile since you've seen Gus as his best so here are some of the pictures I took today.


It's just below freezing here, but the sun still has a nice warmth to it. We try to enjoy the nice days so today we were out for over two hours!







I can't say I'm looking forward to brushing that tail. But that's what you get when you throw the stupid ball into the bushes... *Sigh* Will I ever learn?
