We welcomed winter yesterday, finally. Which means, we needed to go where the winter is instead of the winter coming to us, but anyway. We went on a little hiking tour through Spessart, an area within an hour’s drive from Frankfurt, yet a little more elevated than the city itself. And – here we go! – winter was there.
After weeks of grey, GREY and some more GREEEYYYY, to see some white was really lifting my mood. In addition, I admired the exercise and company of friends.
The little surprise came on our way back, when we discovered a cosy little oven in the middle of nowhere. This has not been there when we came the same way, so – huh, who did that? I loved the sight of it and the thoughts it evoked – thoughts of huddling around a fire in the middle of tons of snow, cooking a nice hot soup in a cold winter night, brewing some spirited beverage to warm you up from the insight and lightening your spirits.
Isn’t that cosy?
