It's March already!
This February, we had only a few snow-free days. At the end of the month, we experienced extreme temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees, with freezing winds. There was a lot to celebrate—birthdays of loved ones, a newborn baby in the family, my 11-year anniversary with Ronald, and in two days, my own birthday. It seems it will still be a wintry one, and I can’t come up with any spring pictures yet, as we just returned from a trip to the Salzburger Mountains, where the snow was knee-high, the air crisp, and the evenings cozy and calm. I did some more illustrations and had many nice ideas that I want to realize bit by bit.
I wish you a wonderful start to the new month!
PS: The bird in the second picture is a male pheasant. Pheasants look so clumsy in flight, as if they could crash into something at any moment. Every flight seems like a potential crash landing, and when they run, they resemble a roadrunner – very funny animals!

I have heard about your extreme cold temps there. My uncle in Germany said he'd only get to do necessary shopping and he likes to walk and bike several miles every day in all kinds of weather. I feel for you. We barely had a winter here. Some days in February when ice came to freeze us in. Spring is very slow in coming here also. Many joys and congratulations on your nephew's arrival, your b-day!! and lovely eleventh anniversary to you and Ronald! Warmth and love to your soul dear friend.
CLAUDIA! happy anniversary and happy birthday too! I think my letter won't make it by that time so I hope it is a truly wonderful day. I am still madly writing and hoping to send it by this week ;)
@Sandra: Yes, it was very exceptional! So weird, that you had no real winter though! Thank you for your wishes! I also got your card already! It's so funny! I could literally smell those sweet worms. It's so many years ago since I last ate such kind of candy! But I still remember that smell!
@Katyha: Thank you, thank you! I am looking forward to your letter! <3
