It's a beauty

Just wanted to show the temperature, the time and the date. So you know it's true! November 6 and it's a beauty. I was working on a blog for our Israel trip, this time in English. Also reading the journal of Kees Tetteroo during the war. A very thick heavy book (1 1/2 kg) but very interesting.

The weather is great. Rien is cleaning the calf pens I'm getting the flowerbeds ready for the winter.
