3/2026 - Söndag den 15:e - MY JOURNEY

 


Our temperature stayed in the 50s overnight, but then it dropped to 36F around noon.  Briefly rose to the 40s but now in the 30s again.  Our wind is gusting to the mid 50mph.  My trash cans & trash are all over my yard.



Today's Name Day:  Cristel,  Kristoffer
The only Kristoffer I am familiar with is a famous singer that we saw in perform in Wichita.  Love him.

    Cancelled my day due to the weather.  Our temperature stayed in the 50s overnight, but then it dropped to 36F around noon.  Briefly rose to the 40s but now in the 30s again.  Our wind is gusting to the mid 50mph.  My trash cans & trash are all over my yard.  And KN just got it all picked up from the last high wind day.
    The house is still nice & cozy but that won't last.  Not with strong winds & dropping temps.  But feels good now.
    I saw my llamas were here near my front yard.  Grabbed my iPhone & sat outside.  Brrrrr.  But they posed pretty good for me.  Got some nice photos.
    All my photos today are local things mostly taken by me.

Baby Kisse.  I seem not to share photos of her as often as my other two babies.

Mom took a class from her & drew/painted the story of her life.

Grave at Elmwood Cemetery Lindsborg KS that a couple of us always make sure she is holding flowers.

Photos of my cousin Jordy Train when he was in the high school Swedish dancers.  The top one was an accident.  He is no where near that white post.  But it looks like his foot is on it.  The second one is a shot I wanted to badly.  I took many shots to get this one.  Love both of these photos.

This statue sat on a front porch in Lindsborg for years.  I am clueless if there is a story about him.  He is gone now.

Llamas today in the cold, windy weather.

Trash in my front yard from the severe weather.  We will survive!!

Nico always sat on my bed & looked out the window looking for me to come home,  This one came out OK.  I still always check this window when I get home.  Cats are near but never in the window.

Yay!!!

03/2026 - Lördagen den 14: e - MY JOURNEY

 



The dalahäst at the Old Mill.



Today's Name Day:  Matilda,  Maud
Matilda is a familiar name.  I have a nice friend in Sweden named Maud.  She has been in Lindsborg many times.  And I have been at her home in Sweden too.

    Had a good day.  Started with meeting MM at the White Peacock.  I ate lunch.  Did not want to cook at home.  They were super busy.
    When he left he went to look at a house on Main Street.  His house has been sold so he must move.  The house he looked at he likes.  And it is now his.  Cool.  I will drive by it every time I work at the Mill.  Nice.
    This afternoon I worked at the Old Mill.  And dozens of tiny photos.  The scanner was a major pain.  If I got lucky I might get to scan 2 photos in a row.  Most of the time I was rebooting the scanner between photos.  I got done with all the photos that had no names on them.  Next week I start dozens of tiny photos with names.  I did get those sorted by size.  Hoping for more interesting photos when done with all these from a local school.
    It was quite warm today.  But I froze in the basement at the Mill.  My house is freezing to me also.  Tomorrow we start warm, then 50 mph winds come here & in the afternoon our temperature is 35F.  Colder overnight.
    When I went to lunch the llamas were near my yard.  I got a photo of one.  The other was mixed in with the cows.
    Called KN to see if he was the one to fix my tipped over trash bins.  He was the one.  They will blow again tomorrow.
    I tried to take a nap at home but I could not sleep.
    Photos today are a mix.














Love this.  Awesome!!


Sweet.






My llama today.
