We are back on track now and all love and kisses and lemonade and great sport again.
But I know full well these days of Covid-19 Lockdown are far from lemonade and great sport for many.
With this in mind, I will just up load photos that I hope will give the viewer a moment´s pause in
these days of ´other-than-normal-times´. What ever ´other-than-normal-times´ means for you.
The photos were taken in the area, and speak for themselves. I have nothing to add.
God bless. Stay well.

The avid blog readers amoung you - (all 3.5 of you!!), will know that we in these parts, well some of us in these parts, partake in the ´Great Saint Patick´s Day Wellie Race up the Alps for Conern´
The Wellie Race takes place on the Kretz-Broggy farm in Moos, near St. Gallan in Switzerland.

- I kid you not, a dairy farm in Moos!
Anyways! Like the World Cup, the Tour de France, the Olympics et al, the ´Great Saint Patick´s Day Wellie Race up the Alps for Conern´ was cancelled due to Covid-19.
So being banned from travelling to Moos for la Wellie Race, I did a ´sympathy run´all by myself on the Bodensee. (Lake Konstanz to you non-locals.)
Not one to let the side down am I!
More of breaking my own rule again.
I like the juxtaposition of the two pictures below, that seem to have little in common. Not so.
The first is a ´bee baby´ nursery. Wild bees are safely allow to cocoon and grow up and then go out and about and do their bee business.
In the small picture on the right, children are playing and well, just being children.
For me both these images offer a sense of `Covid or not life goes on`.
Bärlauch gathering. Wild garlic. Yummy. Can use it for soup, sauces, mit noodles etc.
Never ate it, nor knew about it before coming to the Bodensee area.
But it is always a delight to collect it. In woods. Great to go on week days early in the morning. You have the place to yourself.
March 11th. The last day we could go to a restaurant before lockdown.
