Hunting (Childhood Memories)

When I took off to hunt some more ducks yesterday it was sunny, yet with minus 3C really cold.

The mural on Messeweg was gone - a nearly 2km-walk for nothing, aw, well, at least I got this beautiful pic above, right?

I do wish the weather´d warm up soon, though!

I´m glad I don´t have a car anymore!

Since I started in darkness I had to also free the lights from the ice. Stiff, wet fingers and off in the freezing cold car - when walking fast you at least get warm, right?

I wonder...

Did the herbs survive? The night was -6C. Ingo brought the daffodils inside for the night and kaaa-boom, first ones started blooming.
They´ll stay inside for good now.
Better that than letting them die like George!

After lunch I wanted to get another duck in Bockstwete - the Food & Drink Bar´d been torn down!
In Hamburger Strasse the mural was painted over!

But, well, I found these instead:

My family´s garden was always full of those at this time of the year!
They made their way up through the snow and you knew: Days are getting longer, winter soon´ll be over!
Such a joy to find these!

And stats for the day: 306%, 28 820 steps, 22km, 2400 calories burnt :-)
The only good thing about the cold weather: Walk yourself warm.
Guess in 30+C this would´ve been much tougher!

(Dumb thing at ALDI at the cash out they had spekulatius-stuff for near to nothing which I bought and had some, alas! Does the sweet tooth wake up with age?! ;-)...)
