This picture is taken around eight am. It´s really getting dark here now. But already tomorrow it´ll be a change, because we are changing to wintertime again.

It´s not the best of weathers today, but since there is no wind it´s quite nice outside. The birds gather around every birdfeeder in the village and the cattle walks around on the fields. Now and again one of them shout out loud as if it is trying to cantact someone on the other side of the village. The milking cows are since long inside, but the others are still out on the fields.

The Portal is opening up now, I´m already longing to it will be green again.

I´m really tired now. I forgot to shut down the alarm clock last night so it woke me up already at 04:45 am :-) But I don´t think there´s a nicer feeling than to go back to bed and fall asleep again when one can do so :-) Well I didn´t sleep that long and when i was going to make breakfast I realised that I had forgotten to buy all that I needed yesterday. So after our morning walk I drove away to the grocery store in Gudhem.

We also went in to the forest on our walk and it was so dark there in some places that I had to adjust my camera for evening photography :-)

Everytime I have to go there I pass this old abandoned house. It´s been many years since anyone lived there and the houses condition gets a bit worse for every year. I think it could have been saved when I moved here nine years ago, but now it´s to late I´m afraid. I love to imagine how it must have been there once in a time. If it was a one family or two family home. The house has two chimneys so if it was a one family home they were probably better of than most in this neighbourhood. Most families couldn´t afford to have two fireplaces.

On my way to the grocery store I pass this old abandoned house.

I think it might have been a home for two families once, since it has two chimneys. It can also have been for a family with more money so they could afford to have two heating sources in the house.

There is another little building on the property. I´ve always thought it must have been a pig stie or something similar, but then I noticed that it had a chimney too. Perhaps it was the farmhand that lived there, besides the animals they had on this croft? If that´s the case it certanly was a family with more money than most.

But if it was a two faimily home, what was the use of the chimney in the smaller building? Then they most likly had a kitchen and one room in each home and they would certanly not being able to have a farmhand. I´m not sure I want to know how it really was, it´s funnier to just make up a story in my mind :-)
But some time someone has in that case rebuilt it and made it a one family home. I´ve been inside once, but the floor is filled with windowglass and crushed liquer bottles so it´s a bit dangerous to walk there.

I´ve always belived this might have been a pig stie or something similar, but then it wouldn´t have a chimney. Usually people couldn´t afford to have heat by their animals.

Well, it´s time for a little nap I think. There´s a fire in the stove, I´ve finished a pot of tea and all the animals is already sleeping somewhere in the cottage.

Have a great day now, I will!

Lots of birds flies down to the pond now. At one time I had as many as ten Blackbirds there at the same time and a lot of other birds too. So now I´ve started to spread sunflower seeds on the ground there.
